The value of purifying the environment lies in the Phyllostachys heteroclada. The removal rates of TN, TP, COD and BOD in sewage were 91%, 92%, 70% and 73%, respectively, after the cultivation of the Phyllostachys heteroclada in domestic sewage for 10 days, among which the absorption of N and P of the Phyllostachys heteroclada accounted for 55% and 53% of the purification amount respectively. The removal rates of TN, TP, COD and BOD were 64%, 47%, 74% and 74% in the subsurface wetland planted with windmill grass. Compared with the artificial wetland planted with no plants, the removal rates of TN, TP, COD and BOD were increased by 28%, 19%, 14% and 13% respectively.
It can be used to make MATS. The tenuous nature of the Phyllostachys heteroclada lies in its love of shade and moisture, and the bamboo body is especially cool due to its excellent water absorbing ability. After breaking the meel to weave the banquet, still maintained the original characteristic and the strong point. Sweat will be absorbed by the bamboo thread in the Phyllostachys heteroclada mat, and body temperature will drop along with the lie, which makes people feel the breeze rising slowly, sweat will seep into the bamboo thread, and the bamboo thread will be more warm and cool. Therefore, the heat dissipation and sweat recovery performance of the long-used Phyllostachys heteroclada mat were better, and the more you sleep, the cooler you will be.
