Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2650666
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To provide a desulfurizing apparatus of a fuel cell-type generator capable of suppressing the exchanging amount of a catalyst to the minimum level. CONSTITUTION:A raw fuel is passed through a catalyst S packed in the main body 20 of a desulfurizing apparatus to effect the adsorption of sulfur component in the fuel to the catalyst S. In the desulfurizing apparatus having the above construction, the main body 20 is equally divided into an upstream side part 20a and a downstream side part 20b with a strainer 22 to divide the catalyst S into two parts. The upstream side part 20a and the downstream side part 20b of the apparatus main body 20 are provided with catalyst exchanging parts 23A, 23B, 23C, 23D to refill the upstream side part 20a with the catalyst S2 in the downstream side part 20b and to fill the downstream side part 20b with new catalyst S. The catalyst S2 in the downstream side part 20b of the apparatus main body 20 retains sufficient sulfur-adsorption capability and is reusable.
