- 19 - ALCOHOL DISSOCIATION PROCESS FOR AUTOMOBILES ABSTRACT A reactor apparatus comprising a reaction chamber wall, a reactor chamber inlet means, a reaction chamber outlet means, an inner fins, and catalyst bed material; said reaction chamber wall enclosing said catalyst bed material, and defining a reaction chamber therewithin; said inner fins being attached to said reaction chamber wall and extending therefrom into said reaction chamber; said inlet means and said outlet means each being connected to said reaction chamber wall. A method of fuel treatment and distribution for an internal combustion engine comprising the sequence of steps as follows: (a) heating a catalyst bed reactor to a start-up temperature using exhaust gas from an internal com- bustion engine being operated on atomized alcohol; said catalyst bed reactor comprising a partial combustion catalyst and a methanol dissociation catalyst; (b) vaporizing liquid alcohol to form alcohol vapor; (c) mixing said alcohol vapor with air to form a partial combustion mixture; - 20 - (d) contacting said partial combustion mixture and said partial combustion catalyst whereby a dis- sociation mixture is formed and heat is evolved; (e) contacting said dissociation mixture and said dissociation catalyst to form a hydrogen-rich fuel; (f) mixing air and said hydrogen rich fuel to form a total combustion mixture; (g) burning said total combustion mixture in an internal combustion engine.
