A fuel cell supply device having a dehumidifier, a chamber, a first heat exchanger, and a reactor. The dehumidifier is connected to the chamber via a first conduit and a second conduit and is connected to the first heat exchanger via a third conduit. Further, the dehumidifier is configured to receive a first solution from the chamber via the first conduit. The chamber is connected to the first heat exchanger via a fourth conduit and is configured to receive from the dehumidifier a second solution via the second conduit. The first heat exchanger is connected to the reactor via a fifth conduit and is configured to receive and cool vapor from the chamber via the fourth conduit and cool dehumidified air received from the dehumidifier via the third conduit. The reactor is configured to connect to a fuel cell and receive cooled vapor from the first heat exchanger via the fifth conduit. Further, the reactor encloses therein one or more metals to react with the cooled vapor.
