Steve,
Promised
Keith Addison at JTF a while back that I would look further into the use of
molecular sieves for the drying of ethanol to create anhydrous ethanol. Have now
finally got a company to agree to supplying me with a small amount of the
appropriate A3 molecular sieve in order to
the oxy sensor will notice the increased oxygen in the fuel, and will want
to richen the mixture. this is a good thing as there is less energy in
ethanol, and more needs to be put in. still don't think it will run well,
unless it's a multifuel engine.

I would like to know what they used for cetane improvers. Also they say you
can't mix it with diesel and that makes sense since it is water based(oil
and water don't mixvery well) But if they both burn? What kind of
lubrication does that give your pump?

I haven't done this in about ten years.
Somone let me know if I forgot anything, but there's not much to
it.
Your sievescome wet.Heat them to
about 200C forabout1/4 hour to drive off water. You don't have
to do this, but you'll get better adsorbtion if you do. Best to do this at
reduced
David Greg,
While I know the basic theory ...
Could you please explain how they work ?
How are they different to using adsorption (e.g. via lime or corn-grits etc)

Sure. Actually, that's how molecular sieves work: via adsorbtion. There
are lots of little H2O binding sites on the
