In a membrane reactor, the hydrogen formed in the hydrogen formation portion (X) of the reaction chamber is transmitted to the hydrogen separation portion (Y) of the reaction chamber via a hydrogen-selective permeable membrane (15) and thereby the conversion of raw material gas into hydrogen is improved. Steam and/or carbon dioxide (C) is added into the hydrogen separation portion (Y). In the above method for operation of membrane reactor, the surface area of the hydrogen-selective permeable membrane of membrane reactor can be made smaller while the advantage of a higher conversion at low temperature is maintained. <IMAGE> |
