“…However, the heterogeneity test shows that this effect is relatively small for state-owned enterprises and enterprises located in central and western China. Yang et al (2017) demonstrate that the determinants of China's graphite export values include economical mass, export price, export duty refund, and language. Usman et al (2021c) empirical results show that both environmental regulations and financial constraints have positive and negative effects, respectively.…”

Based on panel data from 30 provinces in China from 2008 to 2017, this paper constructs a quantile regression econometric model to analyze whether China's environmental regulation has an impact on export trade and to verify whether the Porter hypothesis has been valid in China in recent years. The results show that in the short term, environmental regulations have a restraining effect on export trade, while in the long run, due to the existence of innovation efficiency, environmental regulations will change from having a restraining effect to a promoting effect on export trade. Strict environmental regulations will reduce the production cost of Chinese products, further improve the export competitiveness of Chinese enterprises, and promote export trade. The empirical results verify the conclusion that the Porter hypothesis is confirmed in China. The following three suggestions are proposed for China's exports to promote the win-win of China's green development and export trade: promote the realization of international and domestic double circulation, avoid becoming "pollution shelters" and support technological innovation in environmental protection industries.

“…Graphite powder is the primary precursor for GO synthesis [ 25 ]. Graphite is found in nature in three forms, namely, as amorphous (70–80%), crystalline flakes (90–98%), and crystalline lumps or veins (90–99%) [ 26 ]. Graphite is classified into natural graphite and synthetic graphite that can be produced by graphitization utilizing heat-induced of hydrocarbon precursors [ 27 ].…”

Graphene oxide (GO) based on coconut shell waste was successfully synthesized using a modified Hummers method, and the obtained GO was confirmed using XRD, FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and SEM-EDX. The XRD spectroscopy obtained the fractional content of the 2H graphite phase of 71.53%, 14.47% phosphorus, 10.02% calcium, and 3.97% potassium in coconut shell charcoal, where the GO sample tend to forms a phase of reduced graphene oxide (rGO). FTIR spectra shows compound functional groups of hydroxyl (- OH) at peak 1 (3449.92 cm −1 ), carboxyl (-COOH) at peak 2 (1719.42 cm −1 ) and peak 3 (1702.62 cm −1 ), and alcohol (C–OH) at peak 4 (1628.12 cm −1 ) and epoxy (CO) at peak 5 (1158.51 cm −1 ), which is similar to the GO synthesis from pure graphite. Raman spectroscopy analysis shows that the value of the I D /I G intensity ratio of the GO sample was 0.89 with a 2D single layer, and SEM results showed that surface morphology with an abundance of granular particles were found with different size distribution. The UV-visible results showed sufficient optical properties characterized by the spectrum, which formed because of the light absorption of the energy passed on the sample. The bandgap energy value of the sample obtained by the Tauc plot method was 4.38 eV, which indicates semiconductor properties.

“…An F test with Clustering Robust Standard Errors suggested that the FE-model was better than the OLS-model. The further analysis using the Hausman test indicated p value greater than 0.05 (Yang et al, 2017), so the RE-model was considered as the most effective model.…”

China's carbon emissions is heavily influenced by economic growth, which can be largely related to the local officials' promotion incentives. The current study was conducted to test the hypothesis that the influence of local officials' individual characteristics on carbon emissions was driven by the promotion incentives. Yangtze River Delta where carbon emissions accounted for around 13.95% of China's total emissions was selected as the research area. The multiple linear regression model was applied to determine the relationship between local officials' characteristics and total carbon emissions and carbon emissions from different sectors. The results indicated that local officials' promotion source, tenure and age significantly influenced the total carbon emission. Despite insignificance influence of officials' academic level on carbon emissions, the professional background in economics and management had a significant influence on carbon reduction. Our results indicated the importance of local officials' promotion incentives for carbon emission in China. Therefore, low carbon development should be included as an important part of official promotion system.
