The food industry in Saudi Arabia has grown quickly, during the last decades. Carbonated mud (CM) is a byproduct observed from white sugar industry from its raw sugar material. It is greenish color and lightweight behavior which allows for utilization as a aggregated like materials, while in downy powder used as a filler in the concrete. CM specimens obtained after sugar clarification to adjust the mother liquor at alkaline pH to rid get off non-sugar compounds such as betaine and phenolic substances, and investigated to evaluate the physical, chemical and structuralize properties. CM were incorporated as a partial replacement material for agglomerates and their engineering characteristics were ascertained. The percent used 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30% to determine the optimal conditions by channeling the new CM in the construction industry, an efficient CM waste management system can be stimulated; thus, innervating a cleaner environment. This research ia also expected to offer cost effective guides and directions for upcoming new research area on the incorporation of CM in another industries.
