Biomineralization　technology　offers　an　eco-friendly　and　efficient　method　for　stabilizing　heavy　metals　(HMs)　in　ecosystem.　This　technology　comprises　two　primary　methods:　microbially　induced　carbonate　precipitation　(MICP)　and　enzyme-induced　carbonate　precipitation　(EICP).　Biomineralization　provides　a　superior　alternative　to　stabilize　heavy　metals　due　to　its　low　energy　consumption,　reduced　carbon　dioxide　emissions,　and　superior　biocompatibility.　In　the　process　of　biomineralization,　heavy　metal　ions　precipitate　and　co-precipitate　with　calcium　carbonate,　forming　a　solidified　and　stabilized　product.　Despite　its　many　advantages,　little　attention　has　been　paid　to　the　impact　of　biomineralization　on　mitigation　of　ammonia　nitrogen　of　bio-treated　polluted　water　and　the　strength　of　contaminated　soil,　limiting　its　further　applications　in　ecological　environment　restoration.　This　paper　summarizes　recent　advancements　in　biomineralization　for　solidifying　and　stabilizing　(S/S)　heavy　metals　in　contaminated　water　and　soil.　Key　factors　inhibiting　this　method’s　application　include　the　concentration　and　combinations　of　heavy　metal　ions,　the　concentration　of　ammonia　nitrogen　in　polluted　water,　and　the　properties　of　contaminated　soil.　Finally,　this　paper　offers　recommendations　on　the　optimization　of　further　research　and　experimental　design　of　biomineralization　on　S/S　polluted　water　and　contaminated　soil.　Copyright　©　2023　Li,　Wu　and　Xie.
