In recent years, active loess cement has been used instead of cement in order to reduce the amount of cement and industrial byproducts that are the main cause of environmental pollution. We also used polysilicon sludge as a by-product to reduce the amount of cement used and to improve the environmental pollution due to the reduction of carbon dioxide. Polysilicon is a raw material used in the production of panels for solar power generation. When producing 1 ton of polysilicon, 2 tons of sludge is generated. It is an experiment to reduce sludge treatment and cement usage. This study analyzed basic characteristics of polysilicon sludge and active loess cement according to replacment ratio.

This study examines the ways to address environmental issues by utilizing activated loess to reduce the amount of cements that emit a large amount of carbon dioxide during the process of manufacturing, and by reusing the polysilicon sludge produced as a result of manufacturing polysilicon, one of the components for solar power generation panels. The findings of the experiment showed that the optimal replacement ratio of the polysilicon sludge is 20%, 35% for W/B, and 20% for the ratio of the fine aggregate addition. As it is deemed that utilizing the polysilicon sludge for reinforced concrete may lead to rebar corrosion due to the $CI^-$ contained in the sludge, it can be considered to use for unreinforced concrete or bricks.
