One of the world's largest coal-fired power plants with a capacity of 4800 MW is being built in Medupi, South Africa. The structure includes cutting-edge bag filter systems to reduce dust emissions. Prof. Schmidt & Partner carried out the structural design of the filter housings and the flue gas/clean gas ducts. The integration of South African standards and cross-sections posed a significant challenge, with the RFEM cross-section library providing essential support.
