Comment	There are at least 3 wastewater treatment plants emptying into it. The Dalmarnock one is even upstream of the city centre. Pretty sure that a lot of the drainage just goes straight into the various tributaries as well, there are loads of outflows into the Kelvin which you can see if you walk the paths from the Riverside museum up towards the Botanics and the Maryhill lochs. I don't really know anything about water treatment, but it certainly looks like all the crap (literal and metaphorical) from the city gets washed into the Clyde.
