Abstract: In the design of an industrial plant, considerations extend beyond the manufacturing process to encompass economic and safety aspects. Our work primarily focuses on safety, which inherently carries economic implications. We employ Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) equations as constraints to calculate multi-floor process plant layouts. These equations are implemented in MATLAB using two algorithms: the Modified Sine Cosine Algorithm (MSCA) and the Improvement Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm for Real Value (IACOR). To determine the most suitable algorithm for our model, we test these algorithms on benchmark problems. We then apply the chosen algorithm to a biodiesel plant sourced from fruit waste, developing a prototype code to extend the model to five industrial types: petrochemical, food and pharmaceuticals, polymer, biofuel, and chemical fertilizer industries. Input data for the model are sourced from Aspen Plus for equipment design, Dow’s Fire & Explosion Index Hazard Classification Guide (1994) for safety considerations, and rule-of-thumb estimates for pipe and pump system costs. The multi-floor process plant layout model is designed with parameters, variables, economic and safety constraints, and objective functions related to cost, with the aim of minimizing costs and finding the most suitable layout. The results obtained are then utilized to create a 3D model using AutoCAD Plant 3D. In summary, the designed layout model can be applied to various manufacturing industries, considering both economic and safety aspects, depending on the specified constraints in the industrial plant model.
