Solution

The MnO2 is fused with potassium hydroxide and heated in air or with another source of oxygen, like potassium nitrate or potassium chlorate. This process gives potassium manganate.

2MnO2+4KOH+O22K2MnO4+2H2O


The potassium manganate is then be converted into permanganate by electrolytic oxidation in alkaline media:
