This volume presents the reader with information on classification, recent studies, and adverse effects on the environment and human health of the main classes of contaminants.

Emerging environmental contaminants are newly identified or previously unrecognized pollutants, which primarily include human and veterinary pharmaceuticals and personal-care products, surfactants, plasticizers, flame retardants, metals and metalloids, various industrial additives, pesticides, and pesticide metabolites.
