Don't toss it. Freeze it.
This forum once had a long-since-departed owner of a 300 Utility with milky Hy-Tran. Being on a budget, he decided to boil off the emulsified water. That process seemed kinda dangerous to me especially since he was doing it in his cluttered garage. He was happy with the results, however.
I had a bucket of the stuff sitting in my barn. Despite the mild winter, that bucket got cold enough to fractionate the water from the oil. The water froze on the bottom and the remainder was clear and I poured it off.
