PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reforming reaction device capable of generating a high purity hydrogen for a fuel cell as industrial or on-vehicle use for a short time, a catalytic device, an exothermic catalytic body used for the same and the operating method. SOLUTION: The reforming reaction device is formed by arranging the catalytic body 11 for generating hydrogen from a reaction fluid A containing an organic compound or carbon monoxide by the catalytic reaction and a heater unit 10 capable of generating heat by supplying current in a fluid flow passage 12. The exothermic catalytic body is constituted so as to contain one of a sintered compact, a metallic body and the combined body, at least a part of which has exothermic resistive property, and a combined body of a heat resistant body and/or a metallic body, which has no exothermic resistive property itself, and the catalyst capable of generating hydrogen from the reaction fluid containing the organic compound or carbon monoxide, to have porosity, into which the reaction fluid is diffused, and to enable to generate heat by passing current. |
