Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a product and its method of application to achieve the activation of the microbiota that inhabits construction and ornamental materials so as to induce the formation of a calcium carbonate cement with applications to the protection and consolidation in situ of surfaces of calcareous building and ornamental materials in general, and of natural stone in particular, both of historical buildings, sculptures, of natural stone and mortars / cements used in modern buildings and constructions.
  • organic resins of very different type and composition have been used (eg, epoxy and acrylic), and various organic polymers (Lazzarini and Tabasso (1980) Il restauro della pietra. Cedam Papua. Italy.
  • the regenerated layer is only a few micrometers. In addition, these bacteria are not completely harmless.
  • the culture media used contain NaCl, Na 2 CO 3 -H 2 O, nitrates (calcium nitrate as a source of Ca) and sulfates (ammonium sulfate), compounds that could be potentially dangerous as a source of salts (problems of salt crystallization alteration) (Price, CA. (1996) Op. cit). They also include sugars and / or polysaccharides (glucose), which could enhance the growth of acidogenic microbiota (eg, fungi) in the treated materials.
  • it is necessary to prepare a bacterial culture before the application of the treatment which can be complicated and laborious, requiring appropriate specialists and laboratories (microbiologists).
  • a variant of this method is proposed in the UK2208867 patent and contemplates the surface treatment of a building material with nutritive solutions that promote the growth of algae, lichens and bacteria to obtain a surface that acquires a biological patina in a short time.
  • the objective of the present invention consists of a product and method that activates the microbiota that naturally inhabits the construction materials, so that the formation of a calcium carbonate cement is induced, with applications to the protection and consolidation in situ of these materials.
  • the activation is achieved, among the microorganisms that inhabit the material, of those that meet a series of favorable characteristics for the carbonatogenesis process.
  • the new calcium carbonate cement formed is compatible with the material, respects its porosity and improves its degree of consolidation.
  • the procedure described in this invention can be used both in the restoration of deteriorated stone material and in the protection of new material that replaces damaged parts, and in materials for new construction. Its use is intended for construction materials, mainly minerals. The results are particularly notable in the case of calcareous materials.
  • This invention has a number of advantages over products / methods used and marketed today. Among others, it should be noted:
  • the invention consists of a product capable of activating the carbonatrogenic microbiota that lives in building materials, so that the precipitation of calcium carbonate is induced, compatible with the original material and that increases the degree of consolidation of the treated material.
  • the product is prepared by mixing the different components and adding water. It is left to decant and is applied to the surface of the material to be treated by means of a suitable system (drip irrigation, brush, spray, imbibition in cellulose pulp and / or Japanese letter dressing and surface application, among others).
  • the product object of the invention is a solution comprising a source of amino acids as the sole source of carbon and nitrogen, calcium acetate as a source of calcium and carbon, carbonates and / or phosphate buffer as the only other salts and its pH must be between 7.5 and 8.5.
  • the preferred source of calcium is calcium acetate since this avoids the permanence of any anionic moiety that could generate unwanted salts.
  • calcium bicarbonate could be used. However, its low solubility does not make it ideal.

  • algae lichen
  • photosynthetic bacteria actinomycetes
  • chemilithotrophic bacteria chemoganotrophs.
  • chemoganotrophic bacteria although some algae and photobacteria, should be highlighted. The development of phototrophic microorganisms is not desirable because they could produce pigmentation of the stone in question.
  • the Acetate forms the acetic / acetate pair that acts by buffering the solution and preventing pH drops that could stop the calcium carbonate precipitation process and even dissolve the previously formed carbonate or that of the treated material itself. It is important that the proposed product does not contain other salts except carbonates and / or phosphate buffer (such as chlorides, sulfates, nitrates ...) that generate a decrease in pH and act in the opposite direction to the proper functioning of the acetic / acetate buffer.
  • carbonates and / or phosphate buffer such as chlorides, sulfates, nitrates
  • the application of the aforementioned solution will activate the microbiota that naturally inhabits the material, particularly the bacteria that are chemoganotrophs capable of using the amino acids as a source of carbon and nitrogen. These bacteria capable of creating, as a result of their metabolism, favorable conditions for the precipitation of calcium carbonate.
  • This method of activating the natural microbiota of the materials has the fundamental advantage of not introducing any microorganism external to the environment of the material to be treated, thus avoiding the short and long term disadvantages that this could generate.
