Summary:The invention relates to compositions comprising microbial strains and methods for use of the compositions in removing hydrocarbons from water and/or soil. More particularly, the invention relates to compositions of isolated Bacillus strains selected from the group consisting of isolated Bacillus strains Bacillus licheniformis MDG-1000 (NRRL No. B-67888), Bacillus pumilus MDG-1047 (NRRL No. B-67891), and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens MDG1607 (NRRL No. B-67666), or strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, and combinations thereof, and methods for use of these strains for removing hydrocarbons from water and/or soil. The invention also relates to a method of removing oil in a cleaning application as described herein. L'invention concerne des compositions comprenant des souches microbiennes et des procédés d'utilisation des compositions dans l'élimination d'hydrocarbures de l'eau et/ou du sol. Plus particulièrement, l'invention concerne des compositions de souches de Bacillus isolées choisies dans le groupe constitué par les souches de Bacillus isolées Bacillus licheniformis MDG-1000 (NRRL No. B-67888), Bacillus pumilus MDG-1047 (NRRL No. B-67891) et Bacillus amyloliquefaciens MDG1607 (NRRL No. B-67666) ou des souches ayant toutes les caractéristiques d'identification de ces souches, et des combinaisons de celles-ci, et des procédés d'utilisation de ces souches pour éliminer les hydrocarbures de l'eau et/ou du sol. L'invention concerne également un procédé d'élimination d'huile dans une application de nettoyage telle que décrite ici.
