METHOD OF GENERATING HYDROGEN FROM ALKALINE OR NEUTRAL IONIZED HYDROGEN WATER IN WHICH DISSOLVED OXYGEN CONCENTRATION MAY BE DETECTED AT NORMAL TEMPERATURE AND NORMAL PRESSURE, AND A MICROORGANISM USED FOR HYDROGEN GENERATION FROM ALKALINE OR NEUTRAL IONIZED HYDROGEN WATER IN WHICH DISSOLVED OXYGEN CONCENTRATION MAY BE DETECTED
To provide an easy and inexpensive method for generating hydrogen in water in which dissolved oxygen concentration may be detected at normal temperature and normal pressure by a method where ionized hydrogen water containing alkaline or neutral Hions and Hions is supplied with hydrogen-producing bacteria.SOLUTION: There is provided a hydrogen generation method for generating hydrogen from H + ions and H- ions by supplying ionized hydrogen alkaline or neutral water containing Hions and Hions with microorganisms which are rhizobium having nitrogenase enzyme activity or hydrogenase enzyme activity.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10【課題】アルカリ性または中性のH-イオンとH+イオンを含む電離水素水に、水素生成菌を添加する方法により、常温・常圧・溶存酸素濃度が検出される水の下で、容易で安価に水中に水素を発生させる方法を提供する。【解決手段】アルカリ性または中性のH-イオンとH+イオンを含む電離水素水に微生物を添加してH+イオンおよびH-イオンから水素を発生させる水素発生方法であって、微生物は、ニトロゲナーゼ酵素活性またはヒドロゲナーゼ酵素活性を有する根粒菌である。【選択図】図10
