A catalytic combustion reactor (1), which comprises a heat exchanger unit (2) and a catalytic structure unit (3), which are formed so as to have an integral outer shell; the heat exchanger unit housing a tube bundle (4), which includes a heat exchanger tube (4a) and tube plates (4b,4c) provided at both ends of the heat exchanger tube; the catalytic structure unit housing a catalytic structure (7) including openings, which, respectively, work as an inflow surface for a fluid to be subjected to combustion reaction (14) and an outflow surface for the fluid after combustion reaction (15a); the tube bundle and the catalytic structure being coupled such that one of the tube plates communicates with one of the openings of the catalytic structure at a connection portion in the reactor; and the outer shell being formed in such a shape to surround the tube bundle and the catalytic structure so as to ensure a communication passage between the heat exchanger unit and the other opening of the catalytic structure, is used to carry out combustion reaction. <IMAGE>
