Abstract

An evaporation fuel processing device is provide including: a passage; a tank port and a purge port on one end side of the passage; an atmospheric air port on the other end side of the passage; and adsorbent layers filled with adsorbent for evaporation fuel components, provided in the passage; a region provided on an atmospheric air port side of the passage, being constituted of three or more adsorbent layers and separating parts for separating the adjacent adsorbent layers, in which a volume of the adsorbent layer is smaller in the adsorbent layer closer to the atmospheric air port, a volume of the separating part is larger closer to the atmospheric air port, and the volume of the separating part located farthest on a tank port side is larger than that of the adsorbent layer located farthest on the atmospheric air port side.
