A comparative investigation of the analytical features of organic matter fractions of acidic and calcium-saturated Vertisols (Ca-Vertisols) from the Caribbean was undertaken. The elemental composition and functional group content of the humic acids (HAs) and fulvic acids (FAs) were similar to previously reported values, except for the low yielding HAs of Ca-Vertisols which contained a greater proportion of O (35.82–47.17%). In addition, high values (8.38 meq/g–11.71 meq/g) for the COOH functional groups of the FAs emphasized the inherent high reactivity of the humic materials. Spectrophotometric analysis supported the view arrived at through chemical analysis that metal-organic (FA) complexes of Vertisols contained Al, Fe and Si with more soluble complexes in the Ca-Vertisols and in the presence of a basic cation (Ca). DTA analysis indicated that the organo-mineral complexes of Vertisols were regular and thermostable. Key words: Vertisols, humic materials, functional groups, infrared, DTA

In the study, a mechanochemical modification of peat was carried out, leading to an increase in the number of functional groups and an increase in the solubility of humic complexes with metals. It was shown that the mechanical activation of peat in the presence of Zn significantly increased the yield of extractable fulvic acids. An analysis of the spectral coefficients showed that humic and fulvic acids extracted from peat were characterized by an increased content of alcohol hydroxyl groups, C–O carbohydrate moieties, and carboxyl groups.

The cutting-edge photovoltaic cells are an indispensable part of the ongoing progress of earth-friendly plans for daily life energy consumption. However, the continuous electrical demand that extends to the nighttime requires a prior deployment of efficient real-time storage systems. In this regard, metal-air batteries have presented themselves as the most suitable candidates for solar energy storage, combining extra lightweight with higher power outputs and promises of longer life cycles. Scientific research over non-precious functional catalysts has always been the milestone and still contributing significantly to exploring new advanced materials and moderating the cost of both complementary technologies. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-derived functional materials have found their way to the application as storage and conversion materials, owing to their structural variety, porous advantages, as well as the tunability and high reactivity. In this review, we provide a detailed overview of the latest progress of MOF-based materials operating in metal-air batteries and photovoltaic cells.
