This edited volume examines the underexplored combined effects of pesticides and microplastics—two pervasive, non-biodegradable pollutants whose co-occurrence poses an emerging threat to environmental and human health. Addressing a critical gap in current research, the book adopts a multidisciplinary approach (environmental chemistry, toxicology, materials science) to provide a comprehensive analysis of how these pollutants interact and exacerbate each other’s impacts. It highlights advanced detection and biosensing techniques, adsorption mechanisms, and co-occurrence case studies across aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, offering insight into bioaccumulation patterns and synergistic toxicity. By synthesizing cutting-edge research and theoretical frameworks, the volume delivers a holistic understanding of this dual-pollution issue. Ultimately, it offers novel perspectives and science-backed strategies to mitigate the combined risks of pesticides and microplastics—timely knowledge for researchers, environmental practitioners, and policymakers alike.
