In a critical segment of the beer industry—yeast recovery—a leading imported beer manufacturer had long relied on imported ceramic membrane tubes for technical support. Since June of last year, Jiuwu Hi-tech's tubular ceramic membranes have perfectly replaced the imported ones, achieving another milestone in domestic substitution. This move resolved issues such as long lead times and slow after-sales service associated with imported ceramic membranes.
Pain Points of Imported Membranes: Limited Stability and High Maintenance Costs
It was reported that the company had long depended on tubular membrane technology from an imported brand. However, during actual operation, maintaining the membrane equipment proved challenging—issues could only be communicated via email, making it difficult to respond and resolve problems quickly.
Deeper challenges stemmed from the mismatch between the system design logic and localized operations. Imported membrane systems typically adhere strictly to the design philosophies and operational standards of their European and American origins, leading to several notable obstacles:
Language and Cultural Barriers: System interfaces, operation manuals, alarm messages, and technical documentation are often in English, posing comprehension challenges for non-native English-speaking operation and maintenance teams, which can lead to misunderstandings and operational errors.
Inconsistent Parameter Units: The coexistence of imperial units (common in Europe and America) and metric units (standard in China) requires cumbersome unit conversions during parameter setting, data recording, and performance analysis.
Cumbersome and Complex Procedures: The built-in operational processes often involve numerous steps, with rigid logic that lacks flexibility, potentially misaligning with the habits of local operators or the need for rapid response in actual working conditions.
Choosing Jiuwu Ceramic Membranes: Technological Breakthrough and Performance Surpassing Imports
Faced with the pain points of imported membranes, the company began using Jiuwu Hi-tech tubular ceramic membranes in June of last year, completely resolving these challenges. Leveraging deep expertise in materials science and precision manufacturing, Jiuwu Hi-tech ceramic membranes have achieved significant performance advantages over imported products:
Localized Human-Machine Interaction Design: The Jiuwu Hi-tech ceramic membrane system was developed with an in-depth understanding of domestic user habits, featuring a fully Chinese interface and a parameter naming system aligned with local engineering standards.
Integrated and Streamlined Operations: The control system incorporates intelligent functions such as one-click start/stop and self-diagnosis, along with preset multi-level emergency protocols for common domestic fluctuations, reducing training time by 40%.
Full Lifecycle Service Coverage: Jiuwu Hi-tech adheres to a "2-hour response, 24-hour on-site service" policy, ensuring engineers arrive quickly with spare membrane components and testing equipment. In contrast, imported brands, constrained by cross-border logistics and time differences, often take much longer to initiate on-site support, relying primarily on email-based remote guidance in the interim.
Creating Value for Customers: Triple Leap in Efficiency, Cost, and Quality
The application of Jiuwu High-Tech's ceramic membrane tubes has delivered comprehensive benefits for the yeast company:
Surge in Production Efficiency: The significant increase in flux and enhanced stability directly reduced batch processing time, substantially increasing throughput per unit time.
Sharp Reduction in Operating Costs: Extended cleaning cycles have drastically cut cleaning agent consumption, labor costs, downtime, and wastewater treatment volumes, while the membrane's extended lifespan has diluted depreciation costs.
Elevated Product Quality: High-precision separation ensures maximum yeast recovery rates, with yeast vitality retention reaching industry-leading levels, directly enhancing the market competitiveness and added value of the final yeast product.
Reduced Maintenance Burden: The membranes' robustness and durability minimize unplanned downtime and emergency repairs, ensuring smoother and more reliable production line operations and significantly lowering equipment management complexity.
Jiuwu Hi-tech High-Tech's successful application of ceramic membranes in yeast recovery clearly demonstrates that domestic high-end membrane technology has reached—and even surpassed—international advanced standards. With their high flux, stability, longevity, and strong tolerance, Jiuwu's ceramic membrane tubes not only address urgent customer needs but also deliver substantial economic benefits and sustainable development guarantees.
This case powerfully proves that in core materials and precision manufacturing, Chinese technology can not only break through "bottleneck" challenges but also forge tools that exceed international standards. Jiuwu High-Tech's ceramic membranes provide an optimal solution not only for the yeast industry but also inject strong momentum into the entire biomanufacturing supply chain for quality improvement, efficiency gains, and self-reliance. As more critical production processes move away from import dependence and more companies embrace domestic high-end manufacturing, the resilience of China's industrial chain will truly take root in the fertile soil of technological innovation.
