Without reading the article, it seems to bring back high school chemistry and permanganate - probably got the water treatment formula a bit off.
From the article:

Too bad the writer didn’t have a vague inkling of their old chemistry classes.
BINGO!!! POTASSIUM PERMAGANATE.
Thank You
I only worked 1 Plant that We fed PP at the Raw Intake so it had a CT of 22 Minutes.
I think someone tinkled in the water supply and they use the purple chemical to reveal... ewww. : )

Sodium permanganate was once used in solid rocket fuel.
