Abstract: A device for an internal combustion engine for the combustion of a gasoline-based liquid fuel, having a tank, which is gas-conductively connected to the internal combustion engine with the aid of an exhaust gas line and a first shutoff valve, a hydrocarbon storage unit, which is gas-conductively disposed between the tank and the internal combustion engine with the aid of the exhaust gas line, for temporarily storing gaseous hydrocarbon contained in an exhaust gas escaping from the tank, and a hydrocarbon sensor, which is gas-conductively disposed between the tank and the internal combustion engine with the aid of the exhaust gas line, for measuring the hydrocarbon content in a purging air supplied to the internal combustion engine, the hydrocarbon storage unit being connectable to the free surroundings with the aid of a connecting line and a second shutoff valve.

Abstract: A purge system of a vehicle for purging C—H-gas of a tank system to an induction line of a combustion engine of the vehicle. The purge system includes a purge unit, a control unit for operating the purge unit and gas connection lines, wherein a first line end of the gas connection lines is configured for connecting the purge unit with the tank system and a second line end of the gas connection lines is configured for connecting the purge unit with the induction line. The purge system also includes a C—H-sensor for measuring a C—H-gas concentration of a fluid volume flow that flows from the first line end towards the second line end. A vehicle and a method for operating a combustion engine system of a vehicle with a purge system is also provided.
