A pharmaceutical preparation containing a GABA.sub.A receptor reinforcing agent and a bacteriostat, a preparation method therefor, and use of the pharmaceutical preparation in preparing a drug for inducing and maintaining anesthesia in animals or humans, promoting sedation and hypnosis in animals or humans, treating and/or preventing anxiety, depression, insomnia, nausea, vomiting, migraine, schizophrenia, convulsions, and epilepsy. The GABA.sub.A receptor reinforcing agent is as represented by formula (I) or a stereoisomer, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a prodrug thereof, wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and n are defined in the description.

##STR00001##

A benzodiazepine compound represented by formula I, or a salt thereof has an intravenous sedative anesthesia effect. The recovery quality of the compound is significantly improved compared with remimazolam in rat and mouse caudal venous anesthesia models. During anesthetization, the compound has a rapid onset, a short duration, a quick recovery and a good tolerance, can be used for anesthesia induction, anesthesia maintenance and day surgery anesthesia.

A system and process for the recovery of at least one halogenated hydrocarbon from a gas stream. 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.
