Abstract
The need for the analysis of environmental samples: air, water, and soils arose from the crucial importance that these compartments have for the development of living beings. The presence of contaminants will jeopardize the normal growth of plants, animals, and humans. On most occasions, the human activity is responsible for the contaminants that finally reach the environment. In parallel, it should be taken into consideration that the methodologies proposed for the determination of environmental parameters must be eco-friendly to not add more pollution and contribute to the depletion of the natural resources. This chapter presents an overview of the analytical methodologies that have been proposed for the analysis of water, air, and soil in which the green rating prevails. On most cases, miniaturized extraction techniques and the use of less contaminant solvents have been highlighted. Moreover, the devices proposed for the simultaneous sampling and extraction have been emphasized.
