PURPOSE:To prevent a reforming catalyst for methanol from being deactivated and to perform reforming of methanol for a long period with high stability by allowing methanol or a methanol/water mixture to cause reaction in the presence of a Cu-contg. catalyt and below a specified amt. of oxygen. CONSTITUTION:CH3OH or a mixture of CH3OH/H2O consisting of H2O and CH3OH in 0-100 molar ratio is reformed in the presence of a Cu-contg. catalyst contg. copper oxide and Cr2O3 as primary components, etc., at 150-600 deg.C under 0-50kg/cm<2>G pressure in the presence of <=0.01 molar ratio of O2 based on the amt. of CH3OH.
