Hi guys,
If i use, say, 100ml of BD and add 50 ml of hot water for washing
(stir for 15 mins), will i get back 100ml of washed BD or less?

Bubble washing might not be the best method anyway. We still use it,
but mostly we stir-wash - faster and better, and it doesn't oxidise

with good completion. Well, you have to do that anyway, don't you?

(at least a mild case).
When heating does not disperse an emulsion you have to resort to heavier
mallets. Usually lowering/raising the pH does the trick. Since you do not
want
any more emulsion, you should lower the pH, using citric acid, vinegar or
