PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hydrogen generating device capable of quickly generating hydrogen in a large amount and from which waste liquid is easily treated and also capable of reducing the cost of generating hydrogen by using an inexpensive catalyst. SOLUTION: The hydrogen generating device in which the hydrogen is generated by the reaction of a magnesium alloy powder p (pellet 19) with water 19 has a closed vessel 6 having a powder storage part 18 for housing the magnesium alloy powder p at a lower part and a hydrogen storage chamber 21 being the space above the magnesium alloy powder p of the powder storage part 18 and a water supplier 7 attached to the closed vessel 6 and supplying the water 42 to the powder storage part 18. A material obtained by subjecting hydrogen treatment to an aggregate of the magnesium alloy particles consisting of granular magnesium and a plurality of catalytic metal particulates existing on the surface and at the inside of the granular magnesium is used as the magnesium alloy powder p. Nickel particulates, iron particulates, etc. are used as the catalytic metal particulates. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
