I have had whites before that were 1/3 suspended/entrained water, certainly!

Agreed.
Two experiments (if you can call them that) come to mind.

Glycerol with 4% water dried oil from 850ppm to 450ppm

Adding 100litres of glycerol (3rd time used) to 100 litres of very wet whites in the M67 tank gave 70 litres of useable oil, so the assumption is that it originally contained @ 30% water.
FOC water tests by Sandy brae or Karl Fischer for forum members.
