MargreiterA. HofmannA. O. Wagner 0.99). Limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) ranged from 0.10 to 0.25 gPCM/gDM. Recovery rates exceeded 95% for AS and ES matrices, with relative standard deviations below 5%, demonstrating excellent precision. Comparison with chemical oxygen demand (COD)-based estimates showed strong correlation, validating the approach. The method enables routine PCM monitoring in WWTPs lacking sophisticated analytical equipment, supporting regulatory compliance and process optimization. While native organic carbon cannot be excluded and the relatively high LOD reduces sensitivity, the method still delivers robust semi-quantitative estimates for basic routine PCM monitoring.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fenve.2025.1677492 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fenve.2025.1677492 <![CDATA[Sustainability impact assessment tools and frameworks]]> 2026-01-21T00:00:00Z Mini Review Catherine N.
