2. A method for removing oxygen from a gas containing a trace amount of oxygen and a hydrogen in excess of a stoichiometric amount required for the reaction with the oxygen, the reaction adsorption column being filled with a catalyst supported on a carrier. And a gas containing oxygen and hydrogen is introduced into the reaction adsorption tower, oxygen and hydrogen are reacted with a catalyst supported on a carrier at room temperature to be converted into water, and the generated water is converted into water by the catalyst. A reaction adsorption step of adsorbing and removing the catalyst on the carrier, and introducing a part of the purified gas derived from the reaction adsorption tower into the reaction adsorption tower after the reaction adsorption step, and heating the reaction adsorption tower to form the catalyst. A heating step of desorbing water adsorbed on the carrier of the carrier, and a cooling step of introducing a part of the purified gas into the reaction adsorption tower after the heating step and cooling the reaction adsorption tower to normal temperature, Sequentially switch the reaction adsorption tower A method for removing trace amounts of oxygen, wherein oxygen in the gas is continuously removed by repeating.
