METHOD FOR PRODUCING FUEL OIL FOR FUEL CELL AND HYDROGEN FOR FUEL CELL

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a fuel oil for fuel cells capable of effectively producing hydrogen without affecting a reforming catalyst and fuel cell electrodes, and to provide a method for producing hydrogen for fuel cells by using the above fuel oil. SOLUTION: The fuel oil for fuel cells comprises a hydrocarbon compound mixture which contains >=90 vol.% of a fraction 140-270 deg.C in boiling point but substantially contains no aromatic compounds and has the molar ratio C/H of <=0.5. The method for producing hydrogen for fuel cells comprises vaporizing the above fuel oil and mixing it with steam followed by catalyzing the mixed gas with a reforming catalyst.
