Ventilation Air Methane Thermal Oxidizers are used to destroy methane in the exhaust air of underground coal mine shafts. Methane is a greenhouse gas that burns to form carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water vapour. Carbon dioxide is 25 times less potent than methane when emitted into the atmosphere with regards to global warming.
The Batu Hijau mine is an open pit copper-gold mine operated by PT. Amman Mineral Nusa Tenggara (previously known as PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara).The mine is the second largest copper-gold mine in Indonesia behind the Grasberg mine of PT.
Longwall mining is a form of underground coal mining where a long wall of coal is mined in a single slice (typically 0.6–6.0 m (2 ft 0 in – 19 ft 8 in) thick). The section of rock that is being mined, known as the longwall panel, is typically 3–4 km (1.9–2.5 mi) long, but can be up to 7.5 km (4.7 mi) long and 250–400 m (820–1,310 ft) wide.

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 mine is owned by PT Tambang Batubara Bukit Asam (PTBA) and operated by the China National Technology Import-Export Corporation (CNTIC).
