Phosphogypsum (PG) accumulation occupies huge amounts of land resources and results in serious environmental risks. A new recycling product, the phosphogypsum embedded filler (PGEF) made with calcination-modified phosphogypsum, was developed. The preparation process, hydration mechanism of PG, basic physical performances, environmental safety, engineering application, and cost analysis of the PGEF were studied. The results showed that the stress performance and thermal insulation property of the products were satisfied. Environmental performance tests established their findings that the application of PGEF prepared with calcination-modified PG does not cause any secondary contamination. In addition, the cost of PGEF is far lesser than that of the same volume of reinforced concrete. PGEF prepared with calcination-modified PG has shown a perfect application in cast-in situ concrete hollow floor structure.
