This review (including 127 refs) summarizes applications of nanosorbent-based solid phase microextraction (SPME) for the cleanup, extraction, and quantification of Emerging Organic Contaminants (EOCs). SPME is the most widely used technique for the analysis of EOCs from water samples. The selection of sorbent material plays a key role in SPME applications. Here, we have collected information about recent developments in the application of nanosorbents in the SPME technique used for the extraction of EOCs from water and wastewater samples. In this review, the preparation, properties, advantages, and limitations of nanosorbents used in SPME applications are evaluated and discussed. Besides, the applications of these nanosorbents in SPME-based extraction techniques and their analytical characteristics for the determination of EOCs are reviewed.
