The model emulsion was prepared with dodecane and deionized water, and the water concentration was 30 v/v%. Three thawing types were used in the demulsifying experiments: air (room temperature), a 40 °C water bath, and microwave irradiation. The dehydrating ratio is improved significantly with microwave irradiation, and it can be more than 90 v/v% for the emulsion used in this experiment.
