Batch and pilot‐scale studies demonstrated that the addition of preformed hydrous manganese oxides (HMOs) appears to be a feasible approach to removing radium from drinking water.

Furthermore, no irreversible effects are expected if the HMOs are under‐ or overdosed, other than possible inadequate radium removal or shortened filter runs.
