Abstract
A stationary fuel storage system that includes a stationary fuel tank that defines a tank volume adapted to store a quantity of fuel. An evaporative emission device is disposed outside of the tank volume and defines a device volume that is in fluid communication with the atmosphere. A mass of fuel vapor adsorbing material is disposed within the device volume and a vent conduit provides fluid communication between the fuel tank and the evaporative emission device.
