<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress the wetting of carbon monoxide reducing part due to dew-condensation water produced in a derivation path of a hydrogen-containing gas. <P>SOLUTION: The hydrogen generating apparatus 100 includes a raw material supply path 4, a water supply path 3, a pre-heating part 23 through which a raw material supplied from the raw material supply path 4 and water supplied from the water supply path 3 are circulated and pre-heated, a reforming part 20 for producing hydrogen-containing gas by the reforming reaction of the raw material with the water preheated in the preheating part 23, the carbon monoxide reducing part for reducing carbon monoxide in the hydrogen-containing gas, a derivation part 12 of the hydrogen-containing gas after the carbon monoxide reducing part provided to be heat-exchangeable with the preheating part 23 and a water collecting plate 28 provided in the derivation part 12. Because the water collecting plate 28 is provided in the derivation part 12, even if the dew-condensation water is generated, the back-flow of the dew-condensation water to the carbon monoxide reducing part is prevented. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
