The recovery includes adsorption by exposing the gas stream to an adsorbent with a lattice structure having pore diameters with an average pore opening of between about 5 and about 50 angstroms. The adsorbent is then regenerated by exposing the adsorbent to a purge gas under conditions which efficiently desorb the at least one adsorbed halogenated hydrocarbon from the adsorbent. The at least one halogenated hydrocarbon (and impurities or reaction products) can be condensed from the purge gas and subjected to fractional distillation to provide a recovered halogenated hydrocarbon.

The supply line [ 1010 ] directs the fluid to a fluid valve [ 1210 ] which is controlled by a first clicking mechanism 1231 which toggles the valve between an “open” position directing fluid flow to an additive valve [ 1240 ], and a “closed” position which stops fluid flow. Additive valve [ 1240 ] is also toggled between two positions by a second clicking mechanism [ 1232 ]. In its ‘fluid only’ position, only fluid is allowed to pass out of the additive valve [ 1240 ] through a mixing chamber [ 1400 ] and out of a changeable head [ 1700 ] to the user.

A constant pressure valve includes a lock rod, a valve sleeve, a sliding shaft, a biasing unit, and a solenoid unit. The lock rod is formed with a first through hole. The valve sleeve is inserted fixedly into the lock rod, and includes an outer sleeve surface having a shrunk surface portion cooperating with the lock rod to define an annular space in fluid communication with the first through hole. The sliding shaft is movable in the valve sleeve to contact the lock rod, and includes a large-diameter section and a small-diameter section. The constant pressure valve is adapted to maintain a hydraulic device at a preset pressure. The less a difference between the diameters of the large-diameter section and the small-diameter section is, the more the preset pressure can be. 1. A constant pressure valve adapted for maintain a hydraulic device at a preset pressure , said constant pressure valve comprising:a lock rod including an inner hole centered at an axis, an inner rod surface defining said inner hole, an outer rod surface disposed around said axis, and a first through hole extending through said inner and outer rod surfaces;a valve sleeve fixed in said inner hole in said lock rod and extending along said axis, said valve sleeve including an axial hole centered at said axis, an inner sleeve surface defining said axial hole, an outer sleeve surface disposed around said axis and having a shrunk surface portion that cooperates with said inner rod surface of said lock rod to define an annular space therebetween, a second through hole extending through said inner and outer sleeve surfaces and disposed outwardly of said lock rod, and third and fourth through holes extending through said shrunk surface portion of said outer sleeve surface and said inner sleeve surface, said annular space being in fluid communication with said first through hole in said lock rod;a sliding shaft disposed movably within said axial hole in said valve sleeve and movable along said axis to contact ...
