Abstract
Disclosed is a fuel evaporation gas treatment system for a vehicle, which includes a sub-purge system configured such that a fuel evaporation gas adsorbed in a canister is recovered into a fuel tank, the sub-purge system including a recovery port formed in the canister, a recovery line connected to the recovery port, an ejector provided to receive fuel delivered by a fuel pump, to suck the fuel evaporation gas from the canister through the recovery line and the recovery port upon generation of negative pressure, and to discharge the fuel evaporation gas to the fuel tank, a driving fluid hose connecting the discharge port of the fuel pump to the driving inlet of the ejector to supply the fuel to the ejector, and a recovery control valve for opening and closing a fuel passage so that the fuel is selectively supplied to the ejector.
