I did some research, the news was calling it an “ACID FIRE”.  But that’s the 
news.  

When my students did the classic Flame tests, there were wire loops, some 
metallic solid salts, and a test tube with some HCl to clean the wire loop 
involved.   Nothing that would send 17 students to the hospital.   Later we 
used concentrated solutions of these salts that the loops were dipped into.   
There was more going in that room rather than the classic  flame tests of 
yesteryears.
