Hydrogen removing apparatus

摘要

A hydrogen removing apparatus removes without fail the hydrogen gas generated within a nuclear reactor-housing vessel by a metal-water reaction so as to suppress the pressure elevation within the nuclear reactor-housing vessel. The hydrogen removing apparatus comprises a reactor (11) provided with at least two openings (12a and 12b) through which the outer atmosphere is introduced into the reactor (11) and a catalyst bed (13) arranged within the reactor (11) and loaded with a catalyst for promoting the ammonia synthesizing reaction between a nitrogen gas and a hydrogen gas.
