A LIQUID FUEL SYNTHESIZING SYSTEM (1) INCLUDES, A FIRST REFORMER (12) THAT REFORMS A HYDROCARBON RAW MATERIAL TO GENERATE SYNTHESIS GAS INCLUDING CARBON MONOXIDE GAS AND HYDROGEN GAS AS MAIN COMPONENTS, A BUBBLE COLUMN REACTOR THAT SYNTHESIZES LIQUID HYDROCARBONS FROM THE CARBON MONOXIDE GAS AND HYDROGEN GAS INCLUDED IN THE SYNTHESIS GAS, A FIRST RECTIFYING COLUMN (40) THAT HEATS THE LIQUID HYDROCARBONS SYNTHESIZED IN THE BUBBLE COLUMN REACTOR (30) TO FRACTIONALLY DISTILL A PLURALITY OF KINDS OF LIQUID FUELS HAVING DIFFERENT BOILING POINTS, A HYDROGEN-UTILIZING REACTION APPARATUS WHICH PERFORMS A PREDETERMINED REACTION ON THE HYDROCARBON RAW MATERIAL OR THE LIQUID FUELS, USING THE HYDROGEN GAS INCLUDED IN THE SYNTHESIS GAS, A SECOND RECTIFYING COLUMN (70) THAT REFINES A LIQUID COMPONENT SEPARATED AND RECOVERED FROM THE HYDROGEN-UTILIZING REACTION APPARATUS, AND A SUPPLY DEVICE THAT SUPPLIES THE GAS DISCHARGED FROM THE SECOND RECTIFYING COLUMN (70) TO AT LEAST ONE OF THE FIRST REFORMER (12), THE HYDROGEN-UTILIZING REACTION APPARATUS, AND THE BUBBLE COLUMN REACTOR (30), AS PART OF A RAW MATERIAL.
