Fuel for use in fuel cell system

Abstract

A fuel for a fuel cell system comprises wherein said fuel has distillation properties, the initial boiling point (initial boiling point 0) in distillation of 24° C. or higher and 50° C. or lower, the 10 vol. % distillation temperature (T10) of 35° C. or higher and 70° C. or lower, the 90 vol. % distillation temperature (T90) of 100° C. or higher and 180° C. or lower, and the final boiling point in distillation of 130° C. or higher and 210° C. or lower. The fuel for a fuel cell system has a high power generation quantity per weight, a high power generation quantity per CO2 emission, a low fuel consumption, a small evaporative gas (evapo-emission), small deterioration of a fuel cell system comprising such as a reforming catalyst, a water gas shift reaction catalyst, a carbon monoxide removal catalyst, fuel cell stacks and the like to maintain the initial performances for a long duration, good handling properties in view of storage stability and inflammability, and a low preheating heat quantity.
