5 Burning Questions on Uranium and Radium Removal

Water Online:  High levels of radionuclides (uranium/radium/etc.) in drinking water aren’t very common, but they are very dangerous. As carcinogens, these contaminants are strictly regulated by the U.S. EPA; every utility must monitor and provide adequate treatment in accordance with the federal rule, established in 1976 and revised in 2000.
