This book presents case studies pertaining to worldwide geographical areas and scientific disciplines, including material sciences, analytical chemistry, environmental toxicology, and public health among others. It introduces the complex issue of global ubiquitous microplastics in the environment.

Julia Martín is assistant professor of analytical chemistry, and her most relevant scientific contributions are in the field of environmental analytical chemistry, focusing on the dynamics of priority and emerging contaminants in different environmental scenarios and industrial facilities. She has participated in 25 research projects and contracts with companies and public institutions. She has published more than 120 scientific articles (h-index 42) and 30 book chapters. Juan Luis Santos is full professor in the Department of Analytical Chemistry of the University of Seville, Spain. He is member of the research group Anquimed since 2004. He is an expert in chromatography and mass spectrometric analysis, has participated in more than 50 research projects and contracts, and is co-author of more than 130 scientific papers focused on the dynamics of organic and inorganic pollutants in the environment and on evaluating the environmental impact of these pollutants on organisms within affected environmental compartments. Irene Aparicio is a full professor; secretary of the Department of Analytical Chemistry of the University of Seville, Spain; and a member of the research group Anquimed (Industrial and Environmental Chemical Analysis), since 2004. Her research is focused on the development of analytical methodologies for the determination of organic contaminants, mainly pharmaceuticals and metabolites, in environmental matrices and their application to fate, removal, and risk assessment studies. Esteban Alonso is a full professor and director of the Department of Analytical Chemistry at the University of Seville. In 2004, he founded the research group Anquimed (Industrial and Environmental Chemical Analysis), with the purpose of improving specifically the knowledge about the dynamics of priority and emerging pollutants in several environmental scenarios and industrial installations. Before joining the University of Seville, he worked at the Center for New Water Technologies, a non-profit association of private firms and government agencies focused on the field of novel water technologies.
