A hydrogen-occlusion alloy regenerating apparatus includes a deterioration detecting
means for detecting that a hydrogen-occlusion alloy capable of occluding hydrogen
in a reformed gas produced by a reformer and of releasing the hydrogen has been
deteriorated due to the deposition of impurities in the reformed gas, and a regenerating
section for regenerating the deteriorated hydrogen-occlusion alloy based on a detection
signal from the deterioration detecting means.
