Acid mine drainage (AMD) was one of the major environmental problems commonly encountered in mining activities, including in Kutai Barat, East Kalimantan. The presence of AMD reduced environmental quality. This study aimed to design a constructed wetland as a passive treatment solution for AMD by utilizing Typha sp. and microalgae. The methods applied included geochemical characterization of rocks, hydrological analysis, and a pilot project experiment using five compartments. The results indicated that most rocks in the low wall area were classified as acid-forming, while creek water around the void had a pH of 2–3.5. The pilot project showed that the application of lime and organic fertilizer on planting media with Typha sp. increased water pH to 6.91, reduced dissolved metals below the quality standards, and improved soil quality. This study concluded that constructed wetlands had potential as a passive, environmentally friendly, and sustainable solution for acid mine drainage management.
