Betaproteobacteria are economically important, with roles in maintaining soil pH and in elementary cycling. Some economically important members of the Betaproteobacteria use nitrate as their terminal electron acceptor and can be used industrially to remove nitrate from wastewater by denitrification .

In 2017, the Betaproteobacteria was subject to major revisions and the class Hydrogenophilalia was created to contain the order Hydrogenophilales [4] Pseudomonadota classes with validly published names include some prominent genera: [26] e.g.: Acidithiobacillia: Acidithiobacillus, Thermithiobacillus
Candidatus Accumulibacter phosphatis (CAP) is an unclassified type of Betaproteobacteria that is a common bacterial community member of sewage treatment and wastewater treatment plants performing enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) [1] and is a polyphosphate-accumulating organism.
Ralstonia pickettii is a Betaproteobacteria species found in moist environments such as soils, rivers, and lakes. It has also been identified in biofilms in plastic water pipes. It is an oligotrophic organism, making it capable of surviving in areas with a very low concentration of nutrients.
The Burkholderiales are an order of Betaproteobacteria in the phylum Pseudomonadota. [3] Like all Pseudomonadota, they are Gram-negative.They include several pathogenic bacteria, including species of Burkholderia, Bordetella, and Ralstonia. [3]
Thauera is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria in the family Zoogloeaceae of the order Rhodocyclales of the Betaproteobacteria. The genus is named for the German microbiologist Rudolf Thauer. Most species of this genus are motile by flagella and are mostly rod-shaped. [2] The species occur in wet soil and polluted freshwater. [2]
Thiobacillus is a genus of Gram-negative Betaproteobacteria. Thiobacillus thioparus is the type species of the genus, and the type strain thereof is the Starkey T strain, isolated by Robert Starkey in the 1930s from a field at Rutgers University in the United States of America.
