A system and process for facilitating the direct electrolysis of saltwater, such as seawater, is described. The system comprises an acid-base flow battery (ABFB) 230 with an acid solution outlet 403, an alkaline solution outlet 402 and a saltwater inlet 401; and a water electrolyser 340 downstream of the ABFB for producing hydrogen 408, the electrolyser comprising a negative electrode and a positive electrode. The ABFB is in fluid communication with the water electrolyser, such that, in use, an alkaline solution from the alkaline solution outlet of the acid-base flow battery passes into a positive electrode channel of the water electrolyser proximal the positive electrode. By coupling a water electrolyser with an upstream acid-base flow battery in this way, the base solution by-product from the ABFB is fed into the positive (anode) channel of the electrolyser. In this way, the pH proximal the positive electrode is increased. As a result, saltwater is subjected to electrolysis without the evolution of chlorine or bromine at the positive electrode. The brine by-product of the process may be subjected to freshwater-saltwater reverse electrodialysis (RED) to convert dilution energy to usable electricity.

The CCM thus obtained are used in electrochemical cells, especially for alkaline water electrolysis. It was an object of the invention to specify a process for producing a CCM by direct 5 coating which maintains the necessary planarity of the AEM and ideally avoids the use of lost films and eschews CMR substances. Swelling shall also be minimized. The process shall also be performable with fluorine-free ionomers. The invention is based on the finding that the addition of certain organic substances has the result that the AEM swells only to a small extent, if at all (antiswelling agent). It has surprisingly been found that substances suitable as antiswelling agents 10 are identifiable by their solubility behaviour, more particularly by their Hansen parameters.
