Pratt & Whitney completed its first environmentally-friendly EcoPower engine wash on a Dassault Falcon 2000EX.

This first engine wash signifies that this environmentally-friendly service is now available for all business jet aircraft in addition to large commercial and military aircraft.

 

"We are excited to bring the proven environmental and operational benefits of the EcoPower engine wash to a new market," said Lou Quattrocchi, Pratt & Whitney Product Line Management Vice President. "EcoPower engine wash is a convenient way for business jet owners to reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions, as well as improve engine performance."

Pratt & Whitney's patented EcoPower engine wash system reduces fuel burn by as much as 1.2%, eliminating approximately three pounds of carbon dioxide emissions for every pound of fuel saved, while also decreasing engine gas temperature, increasing the amount of time an engine can stay on wing.

Pratt & Whitney is a United Technologies Corp. company.
