The Genus Alcaligenes is composed of Gram negative, typically aerobic species that have a wide range of metabolic capabilities, which included heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (Hendrie et al. 1974; Wu et al. 2021).

Optimal pH is 7 but growth is observed at range from 6-10, and optimal temperature is 30°C with growth seen at 23-37°C (Wu et al. 2021)
