Abstract: The heavy metals consolidation by biological mineralization process was summerized.First, the method and mechanism of biomineralisation were discussed.Secondly,the common creature with biomineralization and the various influence factors was presented.Lastly, the research progress on biomineralization process in water and soil remediation was discussed.The paper also highlights the major difficulties associated with this process in practice application.The possible applications of this process were discussed.

Key words: biomineralization;heavy metal ions;water treatment;soil remediation
