Scientific approach to solving the problem of concrete structures biodegradation

This article examines a method for protecting building structures and facilities from mold biodegradation. This approach takes into account the potential of the building system itself and addresses geoecological challenges related to preserving natural mineral resources. Natural resource conservation is achieved by increasing the biostability of building structures. It has been shown that the fungicidal resistance of building systems is ensured by the porous structure of concrete and thermodynamically substantiated processes of interaction of concrete components with copper and nickel compounds. The possibility of using fungicidal compounds as a chemical additive in concrete mixture at the stage of concrete production and during operation of the finished construction project is demonstrated.

Abstract

This article examines a method for protecting building structures and facilities from mold biodegradation. This approach takes into account the potential of the building system itself and addresses geoecological challenges related to preserving natural mineral resources. Natural resource conservation is achieved by increasing the biostability of building structures. It has been shown that the fungicidal resistance of building systems is ensured by the porous structure of concrete and thermodynamically substantiated processes of interaction of concrete components with copper and nickel compounds. The possibility of using fungicidal compounds as a chemical additive in concrete mixture at the stage of concrete production and during operation of the finished construction project is demonstrated.
