INTEGRATED FUEL AND HOUSING TREATMENT DEVICE AND ASSOCIATED EMPLOYMENT METHODS.

摘要

Integrated fuel treatment device, comprising the integrated device (10, 110): a fuel reformer for producing a hydrogen-rich reforming comprising water and a combustible gaseous component; a gas impermeable housing (5, 105) to contain the fuel reformer; and a collecting container (40, 140) inside the housing to receive the water, the collecting container having a drain (36, 136) to direct the water out of the housing (5, 105) and the collecting container (40, 140) opened towards the inside (55, 155) of the housing (5, 105) so that any combustible gaseous component entrained in the water can evaporate into the interior (55, 155) of the housing (5, 105).
