Potassium permanganate

Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) is a strong oxidizing agent that enables the oxidation of a wide variety of substances, including alcohols, carbonyls, and sulfur-containing compounds. As an active ingredient in adsorbents, it is therefore used for the oxidation or destruction of oxidizable air pollutants.
