A gas generation apparatus, such as a hydrogen gas generation apparatus for fuel cell or an oxygen gas generation apparatus for use in medical scenes, disaster, etc., devised to generate hydrogen gas, oxygen gas, etc. through contact of a metal or other solid gas generation agent with a reactant liquid. The gas generation apparatus (A) comprises a solid gas generation agent and a reactant liquid individually accommodated in separate reception vessels (21,31), these reception vessels coupled together by capillary so that the reactant liquid is fed into the gas generation agent reception vessel to thereby attain gas generation, wherein whenever the gas pressure becomes high, the capillary coupling is severed. In this gas generation apparatus, by simple means, the generation of gas can be automatically controlled when there is no consumption of the gas, so that any excess gas generation can be controlled. |
