Title:
FUEL REFORMING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3642270
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the time until the temperature of a catalytic layer of a carbon monoxide removing device reaches the activation temperature in a fuel reforming device.
SOLUTION: The fuel reforming device is provided with a reformer (1) for forming a reformed gas containing hydrogen, the carbon monoxide removing device (3) provided with the catalytic layer for removing carbon monoxide contained in the reformed gas, a means (4) for supplying a high temperature gas to the carbon monoxide removing device (3) and a means for supplying an oxidizing agent to the carbon monoxide removing device (a). When the temperature of the catalytic layer of the carbon monoxide removing device (3) is equal to or below a prescribed temperature, a mixed gas obtained by mixing the reforming gas, the high temperature gas with the oxidizing agent is supplied to the carbon monoxide removing device (3) to reduce the time until the temperature of the catalytic layer of the carbon monoxide removing device (3) reaches the activation temperature.
