The Howard G. Buffett Foundation
Dear Mr. Buffett,
With the utmost respect, I address you as one of Ukraine’s most sincere and devoted friends—someone who has offered invaluable support to our people during the most difficult times. Your visits and contributions to Ukraine’s recovery have given millions hope and faith in the future.
Allow me to present an initiative that can resolve one of the largest environmental disasters in Eastern Europe—and serve as a global model for sustainable transformation. Just 8 kilometers from Lviv, the historic cultural center of Western Ukraine, lies Europe’s largest landfill of municipal solid waste—the Hrybovychi landfill, with over 55 million tons of toxic waste. It poisons the land, water, air, and the health of hundreds of thousands of residents.
I am Oleksandr Yekimovskikh, a Ukrainian inventor and developer of the ARESAE technology—an autonomous plasma-chemical waste processing system with no global analogues. Using this technology, we can:
- Completely eliminate the landfill without harming the environment;
- Convert waste into synthesis gas and technical carbon, usable for energy and industry;
- Generate excess electricity valued at over $10 billion;
- Safely neutralize even radioactive waste, including nuclear reactor filter materials.
Key Advantages of ARESAE:
- Processing temperature up to 5000°C in an oxygen-free, sealed environment;
- Fully autonomous operation, without external energy input;
- Zero environmental impact and total safety;
- Scalable worldwide—including in developing countries.
Today, as Ukraine faces daily destruction of its infrastructure and growing environmental threats, implementing this project is of critical importance for our region and the entire country.
The Proposal: I respectfully ask you to consider funding a pilot facility to eliminate the Hrybovychi landfill using ARESAE technology. This will be:
- The world’s first full elimination of a mega-landfill with positive energy output;
- A powerful contribution to Ukraine’s recovery;
- A sustainable model of ecological transformation scalable across the globe.
We are ready to:
- Provide full technical documentation and calculations;
- Demonstrate the technology in action;
- Deliver scientific and engineering support under the supervision of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.
