PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a desulfurization and reforming method of kerosene capable of supplying hydrogen from kerosene stably for a long period of time. SOLUTION: Hydrogen is produced from kerosene using a system having a desulfurizer 3 for desulfurizing kerosene, a steam generator 8 for generating steam, a vaporizer 4 for vaporizing kerosene, and a reformer 5 for reforming kerosene. In the desulfurization and reforming method of kerosene, a part or all of kerosene is desulfurized in a desulfurizer 3 in a liquid phase, and the obtained desulfurized kerosene is mixed with steam generated in a steam generator 8 in a vaporizer 4. And a mixture of the vaporized desulfurized kerosene and steam is vaporized into a reformer 5. And a method for desulfurizing and reforming kerosene in which hydrogen is taken out of the reformer 5 by being brought into contact with a reforming catalyst. |
