Non-polluting compositions to degrade hydrocarbons and microorganisms for use thereof.

摘要

The present invention relates to compositions containing bacteria capable of degrading hydrocarbons, such as petroleum or petroleum products, and utilizing complex insoluble organic nitrogen sources wherein the organic nitrogen molecules of the complex nitrogen-containing material is not utilizable by most soil and water microorganisms, a method of enhancing the biodegradation of petroleum and biologically pure cultures of bacteria.
