GE's 360 Foam Wash Technology Aims to Restore Engine Efficiency and Reduce Fuel Burn
GE Aviation has developed an advanced engine cleaning system known as 360 Foam Wash. The technology uses a proprietary foam solution to remove dirt and dust particles from deep within the engine's components. This method is more effective than traditional water washes, leading to a significant restoration of engine performance. By improving thermal efficiency, the foam wash reduces fuel consumption and lowers CO2 emissions. Airlines adopting this technology can also expect increased engine durability and longer time on wing, contributing to lower maintenance costs.
