    摘要: Many types of artificial reefs have been deployed in the world's oceans, bays and estuaries. These range from sinking ships to dispersing old building debris. In most approaches, the material placed in the marine environment lacks any nutrients needed for growth or concern regarding proper chemical conditions necessary to start and sustain life. In this discovery, concrete is made from both inorganic and organic components. The inorganic components are selected to include species that will be used to create a receptive surface to start and sustain life. Moreover, other conditions such as pH, chemical toxicity, nutrient levels and biodegradability are considered in the formulation. Additionally, there is an organic component that is part of the concentration mixture which provides trace nutrients and serves to weaken the structures so it will biodegrade over time. The biodegradable concrete slowly releases small quantities of resources (over months and years) providing a steady flux of essential nutrients.

    世界上的海洋,海湾和河口已经部署了许多类型的人造礁石。 这些范围从下沉船到分散旧建筑垃圾。 在大多数方法中,放置在海洋环境中的材料缺乏任何生长所需的营养物质或对开始和维持生命所需的适当化学条件的担忧。 在这个发现中,混凝土是由无机和有机组分制成的。 选择无机组分以包括将用于形成接受表面以启动和维持生命的物种。 此外,在配方中考虑了其他条件,例如pH,化学毒性,营养水平和生物降解性。 此外,还有一种有机成分是浓缩混合物的一部分,可提供微量营养素,并用于削弱结构,使其随时间而生物降解。 可生物降解的混凝土缓慢释放少量资源(数月和数年),提供稳定的基本营养物流。
