Electrolytic water splitting is an effective approach for H2 mass production. A conventional water electrolyzer concurrently generates H2 and O2 in neighboring electrode compartments separated by a membrane, which brings about compromised purity, energy efficiency, and system durability. On the basis of distinct redox electrochemistry, here, we report a system that enables the decoupling of both the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) from the electrodes to two spatially separated catalyst bed reactors in alkaline solutions. Through a pair of close-loop electrochemical-chemical cycles, the system operates upon 7,8-dihydroxy-2-phenazinesulfonic acid (DHPS) and ferricyanide-mediated HER and OER, respectively, on Pt/Ni(OH)2 and NiFe(OH)2 catalysts. Near unity faradaic efficiency and sustained production of hydrogen has been demonstrated at a current density up to 100 mA/cm2. The superior reaction kinetics, particularly the HER reaction mechanism of DHPS as a robust electrolyte-borne electron and proton carriers, were scrutinized both computationally and experimentally. We anticipate the system demonstrated here would provide an intriguing alternative to the conventional water electrolytic hydrogen production.
SULFONATION IN CONTINUOUS-FLOW MICROREACTORS

A continuous flow process for sulfonating 1,2.diaminobenzene comprises introducing a sulfonation mixture into a microreactor inlet of a continuous flow microreactor to produce a flow of the sulfonation mixture through the continuous flow microreactor. The sulfonation mixture comprises 1,2 aminobenzene dissolved in a molar excess of sulfuric acid. The continuous flow microreactor comprises one or more individual fluidic modules each having various features with respect to channel width and thermal management. The process further comprises maintaining a reaction temperature of from about 150.230 degC in at least a portion of the individual fluidic modules while the sulfonation mixture flows from the microreactor inlet to the microreactor outlet. Thereupon, the sulfonation mixture is received from the microreactor outlet. Finally, a sulfonated reaction product is precipitated out of the sulfonation mixture received from the microreactor outlet. The sulfonated reaction product is 3,4.diaminosulfonic acid, free of doubly sulfonated impurities.
