Thanks Manick,
I just ran a density test. I got 0.7824g/cc vs. .7893g/cc from my CRC handbook. The original material is .7924g/cc. That's about a 10 or 12 % removal. with some slop for my measuring technique this might be good stuff. I'll try mixing it with gasolene next. Thanks all.

Subject: Re: [Biofuel] Drying ethanol
Hello Tom,May I offer unorthodox solution? Try to measure the specific gravity and density using specific gravity bottle. If it matches sg of pure ethanol you are there for practical purposes, unless you are aiming for AR quality..

Simple mass balance? I don´t have a Karl Fisher titrator. BTW, I used the recommended 250 grams of 3A per liter of ethanol.Thanks,Tom Irwin_______________________________________________
