Chapter 12, Drying The Alcohol
General Description
Absorption Methods
Drying With Lime
Azetropic Methods

Note: You don't need to dry ethanol to run your car on it, and drying 
is not a part of the distillation process. You only need to dry 
alcohol if you want to mix it with gasoline, or use it to make 
biodiesel (ethyl esters).

See my previous message for more details: "ethanol and biodiesel",
