Ethanol mogas

I was wondering if it is possible to remove the ethanol from mogas and thought of the folling idea. Alcohol binds with water. Get a big tank with a spigot at the bottom, fill it with mogas. Add water, aggitate, let sit. The alcohol ladden water will settle to the bottom. Open the spigot, drain the water. You now have alcohol free mogas. What am I missing here? If the alcohol is being used to help boost the octane, which is a common tactic by oil companies using alcohol, the mogas with alcohol removed may no longer meet your engine's octane needs. RK Henry
