2.2 Microorganisms in Construction Microbial
Biotechnology
Most applicable microorganisms for Construction Microbial Biotechnology among
kingdoms of Archaea, Bacteria, Fungi, Plants, and Animals are representatives of
Bacteria because of their small cell size (0.5-10 lm), big physiological diversity
(pH 2-10; temperature from -10 to +110 C), big spectrum of biogeochemical
reactions (oxidation-reduction of organics, oxygen, nitrate, ferric, sulfate), highest
growth and metabolic rates. There are three evolutionary lines of chemotrophic
(feeding by energy of chemical compounds) Gram-positive Bacteria (prokaryotes
