Mirian Velay-Lizancos works on concrete and cement-based construction materials, with particular focus on making them more environmentally sustainable. Her work includes studying how concrete can capture and store CO2 (carbon mineralization/curing), using recycled or waste materials (like sugarcane bagasse ash and marble waste powder) to replace traditional cement, and developing materials that help buildings manage heat, such as phase-change materials and reflective pavement coatings. This research aims to reduce the environmental footprint of construction materials while maintaining or improving their strength and durability.
