Abstract
A canister includes a casing defining an adsorbent chamber. The casing includes a tank port in fluid communication with a fuel tank and an atmospheric port in fluid communication with the atmosphere. The canister includes at least three adsorbent sections arranged in series in the adsorbent chamber. The at least three adsorbent sections include a first adsorbent section proximate to the atmospheric port, a second adsorbent section disposed on a tank port side of the first adsorbent section, and a third adsorbent section disposed on a tank port side of the second adsorbent section. The first adsorbent section contains a first adsorbent, the second adsorbent section contains a second adsorbent, and the third adsorbent section contains a third adsorbent. An adsorption capacity of the first adsorbent is equal to or greater than an adsorption capacity of the second adsorbent. The adsorption capacity of the second adsorbent is greater than an adsorption capacity of the third adsorbent.
