Hydrazine powered APU's

Hello,
I have been trying to look at Hydrazine powered APU's but I am having trouble understanding how they work. I know that the F-16's EPU and the three APU's on the orbiter are powered by hydrazine, but how? Something to do with catylitic action (whatever that is?). Anyone know?
Cheers
Rich
