(JP8154668-A)      A novel biologically pure culture of Pseudomonas alcaligenes KB2 is identified under deposition No. FERM P-14644 in National Institute of Bioscience and Human Technology, Agency of Industrial Science and Technology. Also claimed are: (1) a process for decomposing aromatic cpd(s). and/or haloorganic cpd(s). using the microorganism; and (2) a process for remedying environment polluted with the aromatic and/or haloorganic cpd. by decomposing them using the microorganism.    USE -   The microorganism is useful for decomposing aromatic cpds. such as phenol, m-cresol, p-cresol etc. (esp. p-cresol) and halogenated organic cpds. such as trichloroethylene, dichloroethylene etc., and remedying polluted environments such as soil, sewage, waste water and gases contg. the contaminants.    ADVANTAGE -   The microorganism has adequate decomposing activity against aromatic cpds. and volatile chloroorganic cpds. and have growth conditions different to those of known microbial strains to be applicable to a wider field and in more ways.
