The drawdown outside of a deep foundation pit has to be controlled during excavation. However, the vertical curtain cannot cutoff a deep and thick confined aquifer during deep excavation. In this study, a microbial-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) horizontal seepage reducing body (HSRB) was proposed to control drawdown combined with a partially penetrating curtain. MICP HSRB is formed by using the seepage field generated by the recharge wells to drive the migration of a Sporosarcina pasteurii solution, stationary solution, and cementation solution into the deep confined aquifer. The migration of each solution was numerically simulated to study the HSRB formation process. The influence of different factors on solute migration was studied. The results show that the solutes in the fixed fluid and cementation fluid can reach the area under the driving of the seepage field, which proves that MICP HSRB can be formed. The calcium ions and urea in the cementation solution are more likely to migrate to the designated area than the bacterial solution. Increasing the injection rate of bacterial solution and adding recharge wells both made the bacterial solution migrate more quickly to the designated area. In the case of multiple grouting, the solute migration in the later stage will be hindered by the plugging of pores caused by calcium carbonate generated in the earlier stage. Therefore, different grouting methods need to be designed to drive the seepage field so that the solute injected in the later stage can continue to migrate. The MICP HSRB grouting technology can be used in foundation pit dewatering, providing reference for similar engineering. |
