<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a desulfurization apparatus preventing liquid fuel from vaporizing, and a fuel cell system including such a desulfurization apparatus. <P>SOLUTION: In the desulfurization apparatus 3 of the fuel cell system, a control part 15 controls a heater 8, an inlet valve 9, a pump 11 and an outlet valve 12 so that temperature measured with a thermometer 13, that is, the temperature of liquid fuel in a desulfurizer 7 becomes a predetermined temperature, and that pressure measured with a pressure gauge 14, that is, the pressure of the liquid fuel in the desulfurizer 7 becomes predetermined pressure not lower than the saturated vapor pressure of the liquid fuel at the predetermined temperature and not higher than the maximum pressure which the desulfurizer withstands. Accordingly, even when the temperature of the liquid fuel in the desulfurizer 7 is raised, the liquid fuel can be prevented from vaporizing. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
