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 mug and a mesopore volume greater than about 0.5 ml/g.

A vehicle includes an engine, at least three wheels including a front wheel and a rear wheel, a fuel tank above the engine, a seat rearward of the fuel tank, a canister positioned lower than the fuel tank, and a vent hose to supply air therethrough into the canister to desorb the adsorbed fuel evaporative emission from the canister. An upstream end of the drain hose is connected to the vent hose. A downstream end of the drain hose is positioned lower than the canister.

The present disclosure describes an evaporative emission control canister system that includes: one or more canisters comprising at least one vent-side particulate adsorbent volume comprising a particulate adsorbent having microscopic pores with a diameter of less than about 100 nm; macroscopic pores having a diameter of about 100 - 100,000 nm; and a ratio of a volume of the macroscopic pores to a volume of the microscopic pores that is greater than about 150%, and having a retentivity of about 1.0 g/dL or less. The system may further include a high butane working capacity adsorbent. The disclosure also describes a method for reducing emissions in an evaporative emission control system.

A receptacle forming a chamber partially filled with an active substance, wherein the receptacle is a body and a cap which closes the body. The cap includes a top wall with a first main side facing an interior of the chamber and a skirt formed with the first main side of the top wall. The body includes a bottom wall and a sidewall. The skirt and the sidewall surround one another in contact with each other. The walls surrounding the chamber include the bottom wall, the top wall and either the skirt or the sidewall. At least one ventilation path is provided between the skirt and the sidewall, such that the ventilation path connects the chamber with the outside atmosphere.

A user-replaceable receptacle for an oxygen concentrator includes a containment structure and a desiccant disposed within the containment structure. An inlet end of the containment structure allows feed gas to be introduced into the desiccant. An outlet end of the containment structure allows the feed gas to exit the containment structure. A connection mechanism couples the outlet end of the containment structure to a gas separation adsorbent. The connection mechanism is operable between an unconnected position and a connection position. The desiccant in the user-replaceable receptacle removes water moisture from the feed gas prior to exiting the outlet end of the containment structure, thereby reducing exposure of the gas separation adsorbent to water.

An arrangement for a utility vehicle includes at least one air dryer unit and a regulating unit, wherein the air dryer unit and the regulating unit are designed in each case as separate units. The air dryer unit has at least one air dryer module, in particular an air dryer cartridge, at least one discharge valve and at least one control line for the pneumatic control of the discharge valve. At least one connecting line is provided in the air dryer unit with connection to the air dryer module. The connecting line leads directly to a consumer non-return valve for the air dryer unit, which is arranged outside of the air dryer unit, wherein the connecting line can be used at least partially bi-directionally and/or can be or is connected to a bi-directionally usable line section.

A swing bed absorption apparatus includes a bed including a bed housing including, an outer surface, an interior chamber, and a flared interior passageway fluidly connecting the interior chamber to an area located outside of the bed. The flared interior passageway includes an opening in the outer surface, a chamber opening at the interior chamber, a first portion located at the opening, the first portion being fluidly connected to the area located outside the bed through the opening, and a flared portion located at the chamber opening, the flared portion being fluidly connected to the interior chamber through the chamber opening. The flared portion connects to the interior chamber at an obtuse angle.

A cylindrical filter device of the present invention includes a wavy filter screen, a sealing device, and a connecting device. The wavy filter screen includes a first flexible side strip, a second flexible side strip opposite to the first flexible side strip, and a plurality of wavy structures disposed between the first flexible side strip and the second flexible side strip. The wavy filter screen wraps to form a cylindrical structure with respect to an axis. The opposite ends of the cylindrical structure are respectively wrapped to form a first opening and a second opening by the first flexible side strip and the second flexible side strip. The sealing device is disposed at the first opening and has a first groove. The first flexible side strip is able to engage with the first groove with its elasticity and makes the first opening be sealed by the sealing device. The connecting device is disposed at the second opening. The connecting device has a second groove and a port. The second flexible side strip is able to engage with the second groove with its elasticity and makes the second opening communicate with the port.

Provided is a canister that includes a first adsorbing layer K1 including a first adsorbing material Q1 as an adsorbing material Q and a second adsorbing layer K2 including, as the adsorbing material Q, a second adsorbing material Q2 different from the first adsorbing material Q1. The first absorbing layer K1 and the second absorbing layer K2 are provided inside a casing 10. In a flowing direction of fuel vapor J between one end and another end of the casing 10, the first adsorbing layer K1 is disposed at a position in contact with an air port 10a at the other end, and the second adsorbing layer K2 is disposed closer to the one end than the first adsorbing layer K1 is. The first adsorbing material Q1 adsorbs the fuel vapor J at an adsorbing rate that is lower than an adsorbing rate of the second adsorbing material Q2.
