A vehicle able to recover CO.sub.2 includes a CO.sub.2 recovery container holding an adsorbent adsorbing CO.sub.2 in gas. The vehicle is configured so that the adsorbent is taken out from the vehicle.

A canister that adsorbs and desorbs evaporative fuel generated in a fuel tank of a vehicle includes an adsorbent and a tubular body. A contact surface that is at least a partial area of an inner wall surface of the tubular body in a length direction of a central axis is brought into contact with a side surface of the inserted adsorbent to suppress movement of the adsorbent in a direction orthogonal to the central axis. The tubular body has an inclined surface in which the inner wall surface is inclined in a direction approaching the central axis of the tubular body in at least a partial area of an area from a starting point to the contact surface, the starting point being an opening end of an opening into which the adsorbent can be inserted.

The present description provides high working capacity adsorbents with low DBL bleed emission performance properties that allows the design of evaporative fuel emission control systems that are lower cost, simpler and more compact than those possible by prior art. Emission control canister systems comprising the adsorbent material demonstrate a relatively high gasoline working capacity, and low emissions.

Provided is a canister that makes it possible to reduce production costs. One aspect of the present disclosure is a canister. The canister includes an outer case including a charge port that takes in an evaporated fuel, a purge port that discharges the evaporated fuel, and an atmosphere port open to the atmosphere, an inner case arranged inside the outer case, the inner case having an inner space to which the atmosphere port is connected, a first adsorption chamber arranged in the inner space of the inner case, and a second adsorption chamber arranged between the first adsorption chamber and the atmosphere port in a flow path of the evaporated fuel in the inner space of the inner case. A cross-sectional area perpendicular to a gas flow direction in the second adsorption chamber and a cross-sectional area perpendicular to a gas flow direction in the first adsorption chamber are different.

The present disclosure relates to hydrocarbon emission control systems. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to substrates coated with hydrocarbon adsorptive coating compositions and evaporative emission control systems for controlling evaporative emissions of hydrocarbons from motor vehicle engines and fuel systems. The hydrocarbon adsorptive coating compositions include particulate carbon having a BET surface area of at least about 1300 m.sup.2/g, and at least one of (i) a butane affinity of greater than 60% at 5% butane; (ii) a butane affinity of greater than 35% at 0.5% butane; (iii) a micropore volume greater than about 0.2 ml/g and a mesopore volume greater than about 0.5 ml/g.

Methods and systems are provided for carrying out diagnostics of a bleed canister of an evaporative emissions control system in a vehicle. In one example, a method may include, loading the bleed canister during a refueling event, and then during an immediately subsequent engine start, detecting if the bleed canister is degraded or not based on output of an exhaust gas oxygen sensor.

A filter assembly has a housing. The housing has an inner body and an outer body surrounding at least a portion of the inner body. The inner body has a base extending in a lateral direction and a first sidewall extending axially outward from the base. The inner body defines a cavity. The first sidewall defines a perimetric surface around the cavity. A first filter media extends across the perimetric surface and across the cavity. An adsorbent is disposed in the cavity. The outer body has a second sidewall laterally outward from and surrounding the first sidewall. The second sidewall spans at least 50% of the axial length of the first sidewall. The outer body has a first axial end and a second axial end and a retainer portion extending laterally inward from the first axial end. The retainer portion is positioned axially outward from the first filter media.
