Rebuilding Ukraine safely, sustainably, and swiftly
But it is not just about rebuilding Ukraine — it's about pioneering a new construction approach that can be replicated in other regions facing similar challenges. That’s why the consortium unites leading universities, businesses, and an NGO from the UK, Ukraine, and the Netherlands, which are committed to circularity in the built environment, focusing on concrete reuse and upcycling.
Unique cohort of organizations
The University of Sheffield (UK) is the administrative project lead, actively engaged in the project management and concrete separation. University of Leeds (UK) is the technological lead, and will also focus on clinker/cement manufacturing, concrete characterisation and testing, and materials value optimisation using dynamic systems modelling.
ReThink (UA) is the local project coordinator with a strong focus on public engagement, dissemination and communication activities.
Everox Technology (NL) plays an important role of technology and equipment provider. The company offers solutions in thermomechanical processing and optimization; aggregate and fines optimization.
Eco+Logic (UA) will deploy and operate Everox equipment for concrete separation, processing, and dry product development.
They will also do the debris logistics, sorting and primary crushing.
National University of Water and Environmental Engineering (UA) will research blended cements and supplementary cementitious materials, while Lviv Polytechnic National University (UA) will do the concrete R&D, on-site characterization, applications discovery and testing.
The University of Oxford will develop advanced thermomechanical separation modelling, and Imperial College London (UK) will perform a holistic techno economic and life cycle assessment.

About organization
NUWEE is a leading Ukrainian higher education and research institution specializing in water engineering, environmental protection, sustainable infrastructure, and applied environmental sciences.
The Department of Building Products Technology and Materials Science focuses on research and teaching in construction materials, durability, and sustainable material technologies, with particular emphasis on resource‑efficient, and innovative solutions
The role within the S3 project
NUWEE conducts applied research focused on the valorization of concrete debris as a secondary raw material for modern construction.
A key research focus is the investigation of recycled concrete fines (RCF), including industrially produced HAS Ultrafines. These materials are obtained from industrial partners using everox technology and Eco+Logic facilities, as well as through laboratory-scale crushing and classification of concrete waste
Key achievements and contributions within S3
Within the S3 project, NUWEE has demonstrated the effective use of recycled concrete fine fractions as supplementary cementitious materials, achieving up to 10–15% cement replacement without significant loss of mechanical performance and supporting reduced clinker use and CO₂ emissions. NUWEE’s work includes the development of low‑cement and low‑clinker concrete, mortar, and pressed building materials, supported by activation and processing strategies for recycled materials, including HAS Ultrafines. These achievements contribute to scalable, science‑based solutions for Ukraine’s reconstruction, aligned with circular economy and resource‑efficiency principles
