ABOUT ROMAN KAZAKOV
EXPERT AND PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT
Participant in professional and industry discussions on sustainable construction, circular economy and secondary resources
PROFESSIONAL FOCUS
02
CONSTRUCTION WASTE AND SOILS
Integrated management of construction waste, soil and material flows — from generation and processing to reuse.
01
SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION
Resource-efficient and environmentally responsible solutions for construction and infrastructure projects, with a focus on economic performance.
03
LAND RESTORATION
Engineering, technological and biological solutions for returning disturbed land to productive use.
04
CIRCULAR ECONOMY
Development of secondary resource markets and transition from landfill disposal to material reuse.
NEODEVELOPMENT is developing a full-cycle model that brings together engineering site preparation, selective demolition, excavated soil management, construction waste processing, material reuse and land restoration.
Roman Kazakov’s professional work is focused on developing and scaling this model — from individual construction sites to integrated industry solutions.
Economic and environmental performance should be integrated into a single system.

NEODEVELOPMENT
From Construction Projects to Land Resource Management
5.5+ million m³
of construction soil processed and returned to productive use
100+ ha
of new land areas created using processed construction soil
USD 24+ mn
in economic benefit generated on a single project
11
unauthorized dumpsites eliminated
60%+
of materials recovered for reuse through selective demolition
NEODEVELOPMENT’s experience shows that environmental impact becomes scalable when it creates measurable economic value.
Experience Proven by Completed Projects
PRACTICAL RESULTS
The goal is to build an effective system in which construction waste becomes a valuable resource, supporting the sustainable development of the economy, society and the environment.
Its focus includes improving regulatory frameworks, advancing modern processing technologies, expanding the use of secondary resources, restoring disturbed land and promoting sustainable construction principles.
The Committee brings together representatives of government, business, science, the construction and recycling industries, regional authorities and the expert community to develop and implement integrated industry solutions.
