<p>Biogeochemical engineering technologies for the creation of artificial soils are considered. The need for native biophysical models that simulate both natural soil functions and newly created ones for various types of land use is substantiated. It is shown that artificial soils can be created from various materials, including, primarily, various industrial, and construction materials and household waste. The use of biogeochemical technologies makes it possible to regulate the biogeochemical cycle at the microbial level; relevant examples of such technologies are provided.</p>
