    The document discusses waterway problems in Bangkok caused by untreated wastewater, overloaded wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) operating with low performance, and canals being used as dumping grounds for solid waste. It provides data on biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and dissolved oxygen (DO) levels measured at sampling points on major canals in Bangkok, with BOD levels higher than DO levels indicating organic pollution issues. A map is also included showing water quality distribution in the Chao Phraya River in 2001.
