Maintaining operational efficiency while ensuring safety is a longstanding challenge in industrial process control, particularly in high-risk environments. This paper presents a novel Dynamic Risk-Informed Explicit Model Predictive Control (R-eMPC) framework that integrates safety and operational objectives using probabilistic constraints and real-time risk assessments. Unlike traditional approaches, this framework dynamically adjusts safety thresholds based on Bayesian updates, ensuring a balanced trade-off between reliability and efficiency. The validation of this approach is illustrated through a case study on tank level control, a safety-critical process where maintaining the liquid level within predefined safety limits is paramount. The results demonstrate the frameworks capability to optimize performance while maintaining robust safety margins. By emphasizing adaptability and computational efficiency, this research provides a scalable solution for integrating safety into real-time control strategies for similar process systems.
