the FAA have to approve your separation method?

If anybody cared, I would think you could make a strong case for this
being nothing more than filtering to remove contaminates.

On the other hand, common sense and regulation are generally mutually
exclusive.

Don't try this on anything above a cheap lawnmower. The octane of the
resulting fuel will be reduced substantially, assuming you could even
get all the water out of solution. Remember that as the fuel is
further chilled, more dissolved water will come out, too. Don't even
think of putting it in an airplane.
