We present a metagenome assembled genome (MAG) of an anaerobic bacterium from a nitrate-reducing, benzene-degrading enrichment culture (NRBC). The draft Thermincolales genome consists of 20 contigs with a total length of 4.09 Mbp and includes putative carboxylase genes likely involved in benzene activation.
