In this study, different ratios of titanium dioxide-graphene catalysts were loaded onto honeycomb ceramic plates via the sol-gel method, and the modified catalytic ceramic plates were characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR, DRS, and energy dispersive X-ray. The results suggested that the rGO-TiO2 was well loaded on the surface of the honeycomb ceramic plates. According to the results of the characterization experiments and the degradation of the clothianidin solution with different proportions of the catalyst, 8 wt% rGO-TiO2 was selected as the optimum ratio for degradation. Clothianidin degradation efficiency was significantly influenced by input power, clothianidin concentration, pH value, liquid conductivity, free radical quencher. Finally, six degradation products of clothianidin were identified by HPLC-MS, and the possible transformation pathways of clothianidin degradation were identified. Graphical abstract.This study is primarily motivated by exploring the role of globalization, energy intensity over economic expansion, and its impact on environmental sustainability in China. To this end, a sequence of econometrics tests were conducted to address this hypothesized relationship. The choice of China is informed by intense industrial activities and being one of the leading world economies. Annual frequency data from 1971 to 2015 is utilized for the current study. Empirical finding from novel and robust Bayer and Hanck combined cointegration test supports cointegration equilibrium relationship among the variables under review. This indicates a convergence between the explanatory variable and the explained variable in the fitted model. Further empirical evidence sho
