Abstract:
1. A manufacturing method of a fuel reforming apparatus, comprising steps of: preparing a first substrate made of a first metal; forming a first channel on an upper surface of the first substrate; oxidizing an inner surface of the first channel to form an oxidized inner surface, the oxidized inner surface of the first channel being a first catalyst containing layer, the first catalyst containing layer including one selected from the group consisting of Fe forming an oxidation catalyst layer on the oxidized inner surface of the first channel to promote an oxidation reaction between a fuel and air, the oxidation catalyst layer completely covering the first catalyst containing layer not to promote the oxidation reaction in the first catalyst containing layer; preparing a second substrate made of a second metal; forming a second channel on an upper surface of the second substrate; oxidizing an inner surface of the second channel, the oxidized inner surface of the second channel being a second catalyst containing layer; forming a reforming catalyst layer on the oxidized inner surface of the second channel to promote a reforming reaction; placing the second substrate on the upper surface of the first substrate in a manner that a lower surface of the second substrate contacts the upper surface of the first substrate; and placing a cover plate on the upper surface of the second substrate.
