ABSTRACT:
A reforming catalyst adapted for use with fuel cells is disclosed which is free from degradation in catalytic activity even if subjected to a fuel gas containing an electrolyte or substances resulting therefrom, and which has stable and high catalytic activity for an extended period of time. The reforming catalyst includes a catalytically active substance adapted to reform a fuel gas containing hydrocarbons or alcohols into a fuel gas containing hydrogen and carbon monoxide, and an electrolyte-removing substance adapted to remove an electrolyte and/or substances resulting therefrom in the fuel cell. The electrolyte-removing substance has a porous structure and comprises a compound containing at least one of silicon, aluminum and chromium which chemically reacts with the electrolyte and/or the substances resulting therefrom for removal thereof.
