<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hydrogen separation film module system which can remove hydrogen remaining in a hydrogen separation film without oxygen remaining in the hydrogen separation film. <P>SOLUTION: The hydrogen separation film module system comprises: a fuel cell 6 having the hydrogen separation film made of a metal; and an internal combustion engine 2 and a selector valve 4 which supply an gas including oxygen to the hydrogen separation film; where the internal combustion engine 2 reduces an oxygen concentration of the gas including oxygen. The oxygen concentration of the gas including oxygen is reduced by the internal combustion engine 2, and the gas including oxygen is supplied to the fuel cell 6. This removes hydrogen remaining in the hydrogen separation film of the fuel cell 6. In addition, the fact that the oxygen concentration in the gas including oxygen is low prevents oxygen from remaining in the hydrogen separation film. As a result, oxidation of the hydrogen separation film is prevented. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
