Abstract：This study explores the integrated mechanism of planted living walls to synergize the health benefits and carbon reduction potential in high-density urban environments. Based on previous studies, we quantitatively analyze the mechanisms of living walls on particulate matter adsorption, VOCs degradation, and microclimate regulation by combining multi-scenario measurements (street canyons, old neighborhoods, and indoor environments), mathematical modeling (dust retention and thermal performance modeling), and software simulations (ENVI-met, EnergyPlus) and explore the synergistic optimization path of plant species, substrate characteristics and spatial layout. The study confirms that in outdoor environments, the living wall demonstrates significant particulate matter capture capacity, and effectively regulates the microclimate of the building through the shading effect and transpiration, reducing the energy consumption of the building. For indoor applications, specific plant species show excellent pollutant degradation stability, and their photosynthesis process simultaneously achieves the dual functions of air purification and carbon fixation. This multi-functionality makes the living wall an ideal technological vehicle for connecting the goals of improving the built environment and carbon neutrality, demonstrating the integration advantages of ecological technologies in solving complex environmental problems. The results validate the comprehensive value of living walls in healthy buildings and sustainable development, promote the transition from single-objective optimization to multi-system integration, and provide an operable technical way for the implementation of national strategic needs.
