Filter the mixture.
The ethanol that you are left with after the distillation process will still have a minor impurity of water inside of it. To removethis water, you need to use a specialized fuel filter that can filter the water out. These filters are made out of specially-designed fabrics that allow ethanol molecules to pass through while trapping the water.
Add gasoline (petrol) to the ethanol (optional).
Depending on your engine type and regulations that apply to ethanol production in your area, add the required amount ofgasoline (petrol) to the mixture. A fuel that is commonly produced is E85, which is 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline(petrol).

Ethanol fuel can be used in vehicles, lawnmower, chainsaws, and many other devices that use gasoline(petrol). Before using it, have any necessary alterations made to the vehicle or device to allow it to operate onethanol.
Be sure to add the legally required mixture of gasoline (petrol) to the mixture. Pure ethanol is very similar tomoonshine (alcohol) and could get you in significant legal trouble if it is not made properly.
