CaptainPanic Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Industry uses almost only distillation... both for beverages and fuels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the guy Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 if you put it in the freezer the water will freeze leaving the ethanol at the top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melvin Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 If you're going to distill the oil-ethanol solution, why not just distill the beer straight away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainPanic Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Yea, I meant to say a distillation of the water-ethanol mixture is the conventional method which works fine, both on small and large scale, and both for drinks and fuels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
