A non-energized volatile material delivery system for emitting or releasing volatile materials to the atmosphere is provided. More specifically, delivery systems for delivering one or more volatile materials using a non-aerosol, non-energized volatile material delivery system via an evaporative surface device, without a source of heat, gas, or electrical current, are also provided.

A fuel dispenser filter for filtering fuel is adapted to be connected to a support in a fuel distribution system. The filter comprises a housing including an adaptor constructed and arranged to be secured to the support and a bowl operatively connected to the adaptor. A stud / spacer is secured in the adaptor. The stud / spacer defines a centrally disposed outlet flow passage and outwardly disposed inlet flow passages. A sleeve member is movably supported in the adaptor between the stud / spacer and the adaptor. The sleeve member is constructed and arranged to open and close the fuel flow through the inlet flow passages. A filter assembly including filter media is provided in the bowl for filtering the fuel passing through the filter. When the bowl is firmly engaged with the adaptor, the sleeve member is moved to open position to permit the flow of fuel through the filter and when the bowl is removed from the adaptor, the sleeve member is moved to a closed position to stop the flow of fuel. A spring is provided to bias the sleeve member to the closed position when the bowl is removed from the adaptor. Various seals are provided within the filter to confine fuel flow to the desired flow paths.

Methods and systems are provided for operating a fuel vapor recovery system having a fuel tank isolation valve coupled between a fuel tank and a canister. Fuel vapors are purged from the fuel tank to a canister buffer over a plurality of purge pulses. The pulses are adjusted based on the buffer capacity, a purge flow rate, and a fuel tank pressure to improve control of canister loading and reduce air-to-fuel ratio disturbances.

A hash function for a MAC bridge filter that improves bridge performance by reducing overflow of the MAC bridge database and which reduces cost of the device by using relatively few hardware resources. A CRC hash function is used to randomize the search string in the MAC bridge filter so that a consistent bridge performance is achieved regardless of where the bridge is used. Using the CRC as a hash function also results in efficient hardware implementation. In addition, the present invention may be generalized to use a CRC-M as hash function for any bridge filter design.
