Abstract: An organic hydride production device comprises an electrolyzer and a water removal device. The electrolyzer has a cathode chamber. The water removal device has a container that stores a catholyte fed from the cathode chamber, a drain pipe that discharges dragged water from the container, a detector that detects that the dragged water has been accumulated in the container, and a switcher that is provided in the drain pipe, is capable of switching between a regulation state in which drainage from the drain pipe is regulated and an execution state in which the drainage is executed, and switches from the regulation state to the execution state based on a detection result of the detector.
