“…The alkalinity capacity of water that works to neutralize the system in this second stage is starting to decrease, resulting in the acid accumulating, leading to a reduction in pH (around 2.5 and 4.5) and an increase in Fe concentration. pH in reaction (3) around pyrite is lower than 3, varies the acid rate of production known due to solubility Fe increase along with precipitation of Fe oxides and hydroxides reduction (Anawar, 2015;Evangelou, 1995;Roldan-Hernandez et al, 2020;Thomson & Turney, 1994;Tutu et al, 2008).…”

“…Aluminium and other ion are extracted from the rock and transported, which cause heavy metal (As, Sb, Cu, Pb, Cd, Mn, Zn, and Fe) contamination in the waterway (Anawar, 2015). The sediment will contain these heavy metals through adsorption and serve as a long-term source of metal pollution, disrupting ecological and human health (Thomson & Turney, 1994). The significant heavy metals release process follows three main stages.…”

The coal mining industry is an industrial activity that impacts the environment. This activity will generate acid mine drainage due to the interaction of water, air and sulfide minerals. Acid mine drainage is wastewater with low pH and heavy metals content. These conditions will be given some negatives impact on the environment and human health. The low-cost, applicable and simple method to solve acid mine drainage in mining areas is constructed wetlands. Hence, this paper aims to describe the potential of wetlands as a low-cost and applicable method for acid mine drainage treatment. This paper also describes the holistic information about an overview of constructed wetlands, acid mine drainage (AMD) production and their negative impacts, recent trends in constructed wetlands, recommendation components of wetlands, potential application in rural areas and future considerations
