The fuel preheater includes a first mixer provided in a fuel supply line connected to a combustion facility that combusts fuel including ammonia, the fuel supply line supplying ammonia to the first mixer, the first mixer being connected to an oxidizer supply line that supplies an oxidizer and mixing the ammonia flowing in the fuel supply line with the oxidizer from the oxidizer supply line to produce a mixed gas, and a reactor provided downstream of the first mixer in the fuel supply line, the reactor including a catalyst that promotes a reaction of the ammonia and that causes an exothermic reaction, the catalyst causing the exothermic reaction with at least a part of the ammonia in the mixed gas that is supplied from the first mixer and heating the mixed gas.
