VIETNAM FRESHWATER ENVIRONMENT

Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2007, Vol 1, Issue 2

Abstract

Vietnam is a tropical country, amount of rainfall is quite much, the network of rivers and lakes is high density. They make Vietnam become one of the countries that have large freshwater resources in Asian. However, freshwater quality in Vietnam is becoming worse, the pollution make the rivers and lakes become the problem that need to take care. It is because domestic wastewater and industries wastewater flow into rivers and lakes without treatment; the chemicals using for agricultures effect to groundwater make amount of heavy metals and chemicals be found high in fishes and vegetables raised, moreover, wastewater and its heavy metals and chemicals also pollute underground water; the rain take none- fresh air that from vehicles to water resources. The pollution is the serious problem of Vietnam. Researching the methods to decrease the water pollution and save water resources is belong to not only scientists but also everyone. We always make Vietnam become the country that have water potentials not only quantity but also quality.<br/><br/>
