Nowadays 3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to print things such as clothing, musical instruments and model cars. People and businesses are able to create the things they need in life very quickly and easily using 3D printers.
There is a 3D-printed public toilet in Sun Mountain National Forest Park, Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, China. The green-and-wood-colored toilet has been named the “little box in forest”. It covers 200 square meters. It is made from garbage using 3D printing technology. And it’s even stronger than those built from concrete material(混凝土材料). As part of China’s “toilet revolution(革命)”,the government tries to improve public toilets. Suzhou has been using the top technology in its toilet building.
In some tourist areas, tourists can scan QR codes(扫码) with their mobile phones in order to receive 80 cm of toilet paper. They can scan the codes many times for more paper, but have to pay if they scan too many times. The invention can prevent toilet paper waste. The technology can help save nearly 9,000 yuan per toilet every year.
Suzhou is also using big data(数据) technology to manage public toilets. An online service platform(平台) has been set up for toilets in tourist areas.
