Abstract

A reactor 100 includes: a honeycomb-structured reformer 1 having partition walls 3 separating and forming a plurality of cells 2 functioning as fluid passages extending through from one end face to the other end face, having a liquid supply hole 6 having an opening portion 5 on a side face 4, capable of evaporating liquid supplied inside, and capable of reforming the evaporated liquid; a liquid supply tube 11 inserted into the liquid supply hole 6 in order to supply liquid to the reformer 1; and a heating apparatus 21 for heating the reformer 1. The reactor can reform a liquid with saving energy and a space by performing evaporation and reforming of the liquid in a reformer.
