The nearly full genomic constructs allows new understanding of the community and able to reconstruct their metabolic pathways. [31] Our knowledge of acidophiles in acid mine drainage remains rudimentary: we know of many more species associated with ARD than we can establish roles and functions. [32]
The Ombilin Coal Mine (formerly PT Tambang Batubara Ombilin (TBO)) is a coal mine near Sawahlunto, West Sumatra, Indonesia. It is located in a narrow valley along the Bukit Barisan mountains, among the Polan, Pari, and Mato hills, approximately 70 kilometres (43 mi) northeast of Padang .

Coal stockpile Coal stacker Coal reclaimer. Coal needs to be stored at various stages of the preparation process, and conveyed around the CPP facilities. Coal handling is part of the larger field of bulk material handling, and is a complex and vital part of the CPP.
The Alberta Ambient Air Data Management System (AAADMS) of the Clean Air Strategic Alliance [143] (aka CASA Data Warehouse) records that, during the year ending on 1 November 2015, there were 6 hourly reports of values exceeding the limit of 10 ppb for H 2 S, and 4 in 2013, down from 11 in 2014, and 73 in 2012.

The Wellman–Lord process is a regenerable process to remove sulfur dioxide from flue gas (flue-gas desulfurization) without creating a throwaway sludge product.. In this process, sulfur dioxide from flue gas is absorbed in a sodium sulfite solution in water forming sodium bisulfite; other components of flue gas are not absorbed.
In 1977 the rebel group Free Papua Movement attacked the mine. The group dynamited the main slurry pipe, which caused tens of millions of dollars in damage, and attacked the mine facilities. The Indonesian military reacted harshly, killing at least 800 people. [16] By the mid-1980s, the original mine had been largely depleted.
Nitrilotriacetic acid is commercially available as the free acid and as the sodium salt. It is produced from ammonia , formaldehyde , and sodium cyanide or hydrogen cyanide . Worldwide capacity is estimated at 100 thousand tonnes per year. [ 6 ]
