BlueTec® SCR Economy
More Than Emissions: Demand Fuel Economy
BlueTec SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology delivers up to 5% percent better fuel economy.*
How SCR Improves Fuel Economy
BlueTec emissions technology was designed to allow the engine to perform at its peak. By treating exhaust gases outside of the engine and using less EGR, Detroit Diesel can provide up to 5% better fuel economy compared to our impressive DD15™ EPA 2007. One of the major factors contributing to this improvement is that BlueTec emissions technology allows for the engine’s diesel particulate filter (DPF) to extend its regeneration intervals.

1-Box Means Better Fuel Economy
The BlueTec 1-Box configuration, only available on Detroit Diesel engines, combines the diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), diesel particulate filter (DPF) and SCR catalyst into one simple component. By combining all of these systems into one place, it lowers engine back pressure, so you get even better fuel economy.
