  • Abstract
    A mass of uranium moved into environment due to action of uranium mining and milling, nuclear power manufacture, fuel fabrication and storage of used fuel. Remediation of uranium contamination has become a hot topic with its hazard to ecosystem increasing. Researches on remediation of uranium-contanated environment were reviewed with special focus on chemical-biochemical precipitation remediation method, oxidation-reduce remediation method, and phytoremediation methode, which have attract a lot of interest. The disadvantage of these remediation methods, and more promising methods in practice was pointed.
