Granite sludge dust (GSD), a significant byproduct of granite processing globally, poses severe environmental and public health challenges, with India alone generating 200 million tons annually. The conventional use of GSD in soil stabilization and construction materials is limited to 20-30%, underscoring the urgent need for sustainable repurposing solutions within the circular economy catering to broader bulk utilization. Unlike traditional techniques, repurposing granite dust using microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) offers a sustainable low-impact and eco-friendly ground improvement solution.
