<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cobalt reduction device and a cobalt reduction method that are capable of reducing an amount of radiocobalt included in or attached to a metal member. <P>SOLUTION: A cobalt reduction device 100 comprises: a structure 1 that includes palladium or palladium alloy, or hydrogen storage metal except for palladium or hydrogen storage alloy except for palladium alloy, and a substance with a relatively low work function compared to them; a deuterium high pressure part 2 that is provided on one surface of the structure 1; and high pressure means 3 for putting a deuterium pressure of the deuterium high pressure part 2 in a higher state than that of the other surface of the structure 1. The device 100 has deuterium permeate a metal member 10 that includes cobalt or has cobalt on its surface or that includes cobalt and has cobalt on its surface, by arranging at least the metal member 10 on the surface of the structure 1 in a contacting manner. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
