Abstract
This study searched for the possibility of hydrogen generation by oxidizing metal with high temperature super-heated steam (SHS). The temperature of SHS was set to 573, 873 and 1173K. And we used 3g of Fe powder as the object of oxidation. The results showed that it was possible to generate hydrogen by oxidizing Fe powder with SHS and that the higher the temperature of SHS was the bigger the amount of generated hydrogen became. We will inspect the amount of hydrogen generated by oxidizing metal with SHS at a temperature higher than 1173K in the future.
