This paper introduced researching results in bio-accumulation and reduction of U(Ⅵ) in water. Microbes
pH
temperature and coexisting metal ions as well as electron donors are the key factors to affect accumulating and reducing results of uranium. Some microbes have very high accumulating capacities for uranium. Effects of pretreament of biomass on uranium accumulation are highly dependent on microbial species
pretreating methods and uranium accumulating time as well as initial uranium levels. Uranium reduction by biomass was driven by cytochrome C3.
