Internal combustion engine fuel treatment including in sequence the steps as follows: providing a dual catalyst reactor having a dehydration catalyst and dissociation catalyst providing alcohol, vaporing the alcohol to form alcohol vapor, dehydrating a portion of the feed alcohol vapor over the dehydration catalyst to form a first gaseous mixture including ethers, residual alcohol vapor and water, dissociating the residual alcohol vapor over the dissociation catalyst, to form a second gaseous mixture including H2 and CO, conveying the second gaseous mixture to the internal combustion engine, whereby the engine is operated on the second gaseous mixture.
