Abstract

The experience of the Museum of Urban Sculpture in chemical protection of stone monuments from biodeterioration is discussed. The effectiveness of various chemical biocides was compared. High efficiency of the three-stage treatment of monuments using a combination of different compounds in comparison with the known methods is shown. The effectiveness of the used protective compounds was assessed by the speed of the reinstatement of the microbial community over several years after the treatment of the monument. The potential of laser technologies for the restoration of monuments was proven experimentally. It is shown that the effectiveness of laser removal of biofilms from the stone surface is comparable, and in some cases even exceeds that of chemical treatment. In the case of intensive development of mosses and lichens on the surface of monuments, the effectiveness of laser cleaning significantly exceeds that of chemical biocides. Laser cleaning to remove gypsum-rich patina is also effective, but does not always result in the complete removal of gypsum crystals.
