Going to plug this one again for those who missed it - we have a new Twitter page for our research group, give us a follow up see what we've been up to lately!

Today we welcome industry sponsors and supervisors from United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory, Sellafield Ltd and Nuclear Decommissioning Authority. This is a knowledge exchange event with the aim of ensuring that our research aligns with the nuclear industry. #engineering #phd #nuclear

A big shout out to Charley Nevin, Ava M Sjoberg & Brant Walkley from Cements@Sheffield & SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield), who held the excellent Encapsulants Industry Research Day. This included talks from Sellafield Ltd, United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory & students whose research focuses on waste encapsulants. Well done to all!

It was wonderful to host our colleagues, collaborators, & funders from Sellafield Ltd United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory Nuclear Decommissioning Authority for this event in CBESheffield - 10 highly experienced experts from the nuclear industry visited our SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) & Cements@Sheffield researchers to discuss their research! 🌍👩‍🔬☢️

Congratulations Laura Stefanini, a great paper from your PhD work!

Very proud of Ava M Sjoberg who today delivered an excellent talk at The University of Sheffield International Women in Engineering Day event #INWED. Big shout out to all of my female colleagues in SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) CBESheffield for the excellent work that you do!

Brant (and the SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) group) has previously featured in one of Ed Conway's Sky News reports, talking about sustainable cement and how the answer to net zero lies here with us at The University of Sheffield Watch it here: youtu.be/SnfWATH9xG8

Always a pleasure to chat with you Ed Conway about cement, materials, and sustainability. Excited to read your new book too - my colleague Anthony J Ryan OBE was raving about it the other day!

Please RT🚨 We will begin recruiting next week for a new postdoc to join our group to develop new processing technology for utilisation of industrial waste in cement and concrete. Strong industrial focus & applied chemical/materials engineering research. More details to follow.🌍

SMASH members Micael, Charley Nevin, and Ava M Sjoberg hosted a Pride Mega Fab(ulous) coffee morning with the rest of the GRAND committee for staff and students in the department this morning. We had such a good time and already looking forward to the next GRAND event!

BREAKING: BRANT’S GRANT! A UK and Japan partnership sees The University of Sheffield awarded a share of £1 million to address challenges and drive enhancements of nuclear waste disposal at Sellafield, UK, and Fukushima, Japan. sheffield.ac.uk/news/uk-and-ja… Brant Walkley

"This investment highlights the confidence of UK and Japanese research councils in The University of Sheffield as a centre of research excellence in cement chemistry and engineering." New CBESheffield research will help address challenges in nuclear waste disposal👇 sheffield.ac.uk/news/uk-and-ja…

We’re supporting two new projects that will bring together researchers in the UK and Japan to develop new technologies to address the challenges in nuclear waste disposal. More: orlo.uk/Bvqb5 文部科学省　MEXT University of Strathclyde The University of Sheffield

🥳 New Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council-funded project in SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) CBESheffield to develop geopolymer cements for disposal of radioactive waste from Sellafield and Fukushima sites☢️

Congratulations to our Brant Walkley who will be leading a project to address challenges in radioactive waste treatment, packaging, and storage! A share of £1m funding has been awarded by the UK in partnership with the Japanese government. Take a look at all the details 👇

SMASH delegates have arrived in Bangkok for ICCC 2023. We had such a lovely evening at the pre-Congress dinner and exploring the local culture. Looking forward to the proceedings starting today! #ICCC23

SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) team having a great time at ICCC 2023! For those attending go and check out the presentations and posters from our group and have a chat! 🙂

During the coffee break we had a poster session when our second year #GranthamScholars presented their PhD research which all relates to sustainability. There were some great posters presented across all different departments! SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) Jake Muhammad Luthfi Ava M Sjoberg

Better late than never but last month I had the incredible opportunity to present my work at the biggest cements conference in the world, it was such an amazing experience and the two weeks travelling around Thailand after weren’t too bad either!#ICCC2023
