Patent

CA 2374702

The present invention provides a reforming apparatus and a scavenging method for the reforming apparatus that simplifies the system for the operation stop of the apparatus without requiring an inert gas for scavenging and can limit the degradation of the catalyst. The present invention comprises a reformer 3 that generates a hydrogen rich gas from a fuel stream by a reforming reaction using a reforming catalyst, a fuel introducing device 4 that can introduce a fuel stream into a reformer 3, a selective oxidizing apparatus 12 that oxidizes carbon monoxide in the reformed gas into carbon dioxide by a selective oxidizing reaction using a selective oxidizing catalyst, and an air introducing device 5 that can introduce air into the reformer 3, and wherein the reforming catalyst of the reformer 3 is a noble metal catalyst carried by a metallic oxide, and the selective oxidizing catalyst of the selective oxidizing apparatus 12 is a catalyst that incorporates platinum.
