Corporate sustainability is one of the most challenging issues in superior organizations, and is always one of the main concerns of top managers. The importance of quality management in organizations—especially as total quality management—is considered to be one of the most important indicators of sustainability. We cannot achieve sustainability and its important sub-parameters—including economic and social sustainability—by merely employing the value of knowledge creation and knowledge sharing, without also focusing on customers, leadership, and process management. We designed appropriate questionnaires to test this premise, and then distributed and collected them from various reputable pharmaceutical companies in Turkey. We recorded the opinions of managers, supervisors, and deputies of different departments at various organizational levels. To analyze the data, SPSS software—one of the well-known applications in this field—was used. The new regular economy introduces new requirements for newly built public universities or pharmaceutical companies; therefore, their transformation and development are imminent. For example, colleges should comply with the new requirements of economic and social transformation for higher education, innovate their talent training models, and cultivate higher ideological standards and morality while instilling strong practical ability in their graduates to serve society. The results of this study not only illustrate the positive effects of total quality management on firms’ sustainability, but also validate knowledge management and its sub-variables, including knowledge creation and sharing. In addition, they confirm the mediating role of sub-variables, including knowledge creation and knowledge sharing in companies, influencing the effects of total quality management on the sustainability of companies.

The connection of universities with new knowledge in various sciences leads to entrepreneurship and the progress of the economic development of universities. Countries with higher education institutions, in the shadow of practical research and development, are trying to strengthen the economic structure and entrepreneurship, and conduct basic research. Besides, higher education institutions are building science parks and implementing high-tech projects jointly with industry. New materials such as PVC and concrete have been created through scientific evolution between innovators and industry workers, which can be used as one of the most useful building materials. Among the advantages of these materials, we can point out their low cost compared to the high volume of their use, which has attracted the attention of most engineers, designers, employers, innovators and entrepreneurs. In this regard, the construction industry is also a huge consumer of natural resources and at the same time a waste producer, which is solved by this number of graduate students. In this article, we intend to investigate the engineering properties and environmental effects of green materials prepared with PVC waste powder using designers, innovators and entrepreneurial ideas. Many studies have been conducted on the chemical decomposition of PVC to transform PVC into other products, so investigating the possibility of recycling PVC and reusing it in the production cycle is an important issue in the discussion of waste. One of the proposed ways is to replace river sand with PVC waste to prepare concrete, which can be considered one of the environmentally friendly activities of employers, innovators and entrepreneurs. The obtained results show that there is a great demand for the production of natural materials as non-renewable materials with better support for the economy of countries such as China or with high waste.
