An odor filtration media having a chemical reagent which removes odor causing fluid contaminants from a fluid stream through the use of granular or shaped media have a chemical composition including permanganate is provided. A method of producing the odor absorbing media having a chemical reagent is also provided and comprises the steps of mixing H 2 O, KMnO 4 , and at least one salt adding ions or ionic compounds selected from the group consisting of Na + , Li + , K + , NH 4 + , Cl − , SO 4 2− , BO 3 2− , CO 3 2− , PO 4 3− , NO 3 − and combinations thereof, or from the group consisting of Na + , Li + , K + , NH 4 + , Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , Cl − , BO 3 2− , NO 3 − and combinations thereof, forming an impregnating solution. The impregnating solution is heated and combined with a support material to form a coherent mass. |
