One of the common radioactive elements found in drinking water is uranium. Drinking water containing trace amounts of uranium can cause major health problems. Consequently, the detection of uranium in drinking water has raised concerns among public regulators and policy makers. In addition to its radioactivity, excessive exposure to U in drinking water can harm biological structures through chemical toxicity, which is thought to be the main health risk. Uranium concentrations in drinking water below 30 μg/l are considered safe by the World Health Organization (WHO). Uranium transport and remediation strategies are critical components of managing uranium mining, nuclear energy, and environmental contamination. The transport of uranium poses significant safety risks due to its radioactive nature, requiring stringent safety measures, regulatory compliance, and secure transportation routes. The potential for accidents or spills necessitates specialized containers and monitoring systems to prevent environmental contamination. Effective remediation of uranium contamination involves both active and passive techniques for soil and water restoration, including in situ chemical reduction, bioremediation, and the removal of contaminated soil and water. Currently, it is important to use successful remediation techniques and environmental monitoring to prevent ecosystem damage.
