What are the hazards of chlorides in industrial gases? Although chlorides in industrial gases are typically present in ppm levels or even lower, long-term accumulation can cause continuous damage to the system. First, chlorides easily corrode metal equipment, especially in high-temperature and high-humidity environments, accelerating the corrosion and aging of heat exchangers, reactors, and pipelines. […]
Working Principle of KMnO₄ Activated Alumina KMnO₄ activated alumina is an oxidizing adsorbent formed by uniformly loading potassium permanganate onto the pore surface of activated alumina. Activated alumina itself has a high specific surface area and abundant pore structure, enabling it to quickly adsorb pollutants from the air; while potassium permanganate has strong oxidizing capabilities, […]
Potassium permanganate endows materials with strong oxidizing capabilities. Potassium permanganate (KMnO₄) itself is a strong oxidant, capable of rapidly oxidizing various harmful gases. When potassium permanganate is uniformly loaded onto the surface of activated alumina, the material not only possesses physical adsorption capabilities but also undergoes chemical oxidation reactions. For example, when treating hydrogen sulfide […]
