美国环境保护署（US Environmental Protection Agency）既赞助了几项校外研究项目，也对铀去除处理进行了内部研究。本文总结了各种处理方法去除饮用水中铀的有效性的最新信息。由于铀同时存在于地表水和地下水中，人们研究了多种方法。然而，这里提供的大多数信息都是从实验室或中试工厂研究中开发出来的，因为全尺寸处理系统的数据有限。包括15个参考文献、表格和图表。

The US Environmental Protection Agency has both sponsored several extramural research projects and conducted in-house research on uranium removal treatment. This article summarizes recent information on the effectiveness of various treatment methods to remove uranium from drinking water supplies. Because uranium is found in both surface water and groundwater, a variety of methods have been studied. Most of the information presented here, however, was developed from either laboratory or pilot-plant studies because only limited data exist on full-scale treatment systems. Includes 15 references, tables, figures.
