Description
The condensation valve allows for the one way movement of any liquids from a gas pipe into a liquid pipe.
If you compress gas to the point of it condensation, the liquid that comes out of the pipe will be at the same temperature. Due to the lack of pressure in the liquid pipe, the liquid will quickly evaporate again but in doing so will cool down significantly. Be sure to handle the gas coming out of this as it cannot flow backwards, failure to do so will eventually damage the pipe.
This effect is very useful on planets like Vulcan where at night you can squeeze pollutants out of the atmosphere at 30Mpa+ at 60-70C making it an exceptionally good coolant.
