Acid mine drainage is one of the main environmental problems in coal mining activities, especially open pit mining methods. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of acid mine drainage in settling pond 39 inlet of PT Indominco Mandiri and analyze the effectiveness of the combination of active (addition of quicklime) and passive (phytoremediation using Pistia stratiotes) treatment in increasing pH and reducing Mn levels. The research methods include field surveys, laboratory tests, and laboratory-scale experiments with four treatment variations: P1 without treatment or treatment (control), P2 addition of lime (active), P3 addition of lime and pistia stratiotes plants (active-passive combination), and P4 addition of plants only (passive) using a static phytoremediation system for 7 days per periode Mn parameters were tested until the 28th day, while pH were analyzed every 3 days until the 30th day. The results showed that the initial pH was 3 and Mn 13.95 mg/L and the P3 treatment was the most effective, increasing pH by 138.67% and reducing Mn by 99.15% at the end of the experiment.
