Geyser potassium permanganate, Dnipropetrovsk region.

Potassium permanganate— potassium permanganate, potassium salt of manganous acid. Strong oxidizer. A concentrated solution of potassium permanganate is colored in intense violet color, and a diluted solution is colored pink.

Potassium permanganate - (KMnO4), potassium permanganate, potassium salt of manganous acid. Very strong oxidizer. Solutions of potassium permanganate, depending on the concentration, have a color from pink to purple. Care must be taken when working with potassium permanganate. The reagent leaves severe burns! Do not allow potassium permanganate to come into contact with mucous membranes and open areas of the skin. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water. In water treatment, potassium permanganate is used for the preparation of regeneration solutions for the regeneration of de-iron filters with such filter materials as Manganese Greensand, MTM, etc. With continuous cycles of regeneration of de-ironing filters, a solution of potassium permanganate can be dosed into water. However, this mode of operation of iron removers is used extremely rarely due to the need to control temperature regimes that greatly affect the solubility of potassium permanganate in water.
