Jiutian · Molecular Sieve Membrane Separation Technology Company


Jiangsu Jiutian Heaven High-Tech Co., Ltd.Located in the Pukou Economic Development Zone of Nanjing, the company was established in December 2011 with a registered capital of RMB 30.08 million. It is a national high-tech enterprise integrating research and development, manufacturing, sales, and services.

Jiutian Heaven High-Tech is supported by the Membrane Science and Technology Research Institute of Nanjing Tech University,A close industry–university–research collaboration has been established, with the R&D team led and mentored by academicians and chief scientists of the national “973” Program. The team comprises four PhDs and twenty master’s degree holders. The company focuses on the research, development, production, and marketing of pervaporation membrane separation technologies and products, which are used for dehydrating organic solvents in industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, electronics, and energy. Compared with conventional separation methods, this innovative pervaporation membrane technology enables highly precise molecular‑level separations while achieving energy savings of 30% to over 50%. It is a quintessential example of an energy‑efficient, environmentally friendly technology and has been hailed as the “crown jewel” of the separation‑technology field.

At present, only two companies—Germany’s GFT‑IKTS and Japan’s Mitsui Shipbuilding—are capable of offering commercial molecular-sieve pervaporation membranes for dehydration. After years of research and development, Jiutian High‑Tech has…It is one of the earliest enterprises in China to achieve industrial-scale application of NaA-type molecular sieve pervaporation membranes.The company holds a 61% market share in the pharmaceutical industry. It has undertaken more than twenty major provincial- and ministerial-level projects, including the National 863 Program, Jiangsu Province’s Science and Technology Achievement Transformation Project, and the Jiangsu Province Industrial Transformation and Upgrading Project. The company possesses numerous core technologies with independent intellectual property rights, having filed over 130 patent applications and obtained nearly 100 authorized patents, including 33 invention patents and 6 software copyrights.

Jiutian Heaven High-Tech was recognized as a National High-Tech Enterprise in 2013.The company successfully passed re‑certification in 2016, 2019, and 2022, and was recognized in 2024 as a national “Little Giant” enterprise specializing in niche fields and demonstrating innovation. It has also been honored as a National Intellectual Property Advantage Enterprise, a Demonstration Enterprise for Technological Innovation in China’s petroleum and chemical industries, an Outstanding Enterprise in China’s Membrane Industry, a Gazelle Enterprise within the Sunan National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone, a Jiangsu Province “Genuine Products, Legitimate Goods” Commitment Enterprise, a Jiangsu Province Specialized, Refined, Distinctive, and Innovative SME, a Nanjing City Manufacturing Single‑Item Champion, a Nanjing City Gazelle Enterprise, and a Nanjing City Contract‑Abiding and Credit‑worthy Enterprise, among others. The company’s technological achievements have earned numerous awards, including the First Prize for Technological Invention from the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation in 2012, recognition as a Key New Technology and New Product Promoted and Applied in Jiangsu Province in 2014, an Excellence Award at the 10th Jiangsu Provincial Patent Project Awards in 2017, the First Prize of the China Membrane Industry Association Science and Technology Award in 2018, the First Prize of the Jiangsu Provincial Science and Technology Award in 2020, the Gold Medal for Patents in the Membrane Industry in 2021, the China Patent Excellence Award in 2022, and the Excellence Award in the Membrane Industry Patent Awards in 2023. Additionally, the company has been designated as a “Jiangsu Province Specialized, Refined, Distinctive, and Innovative Product” and a “Jiangsu Province High‑Tech Product,” among other prestigious titles. At present, the company is experiencing rapid growth, having deployed over 500 industrial units to major publicly listed pharmaceutical companies such as Sinopharm Group, Harbin Pharmaceutical Group, Sanjiu Pharmaceutical Group, Tasly Group, Qilu Pharmaceutical, and Hengrui Medicine. Its core product—molecular sieve pervaporation membranes—is now sold in the United States and across the European Union.

Jiutian Heaven High-Tech actively takes the lead in drafting national and industry standards,The company participated in the formulation of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s National New Materials Development Plan, and the “Made in China 2025” roadmap explicitly identifies “pervaporation membranes” as a key priority for the future development of solvent‑separation technologies. Seizing this historic opportunity, the company will continue to ramp up R&D investment, steadily enhance its technological capabilities, and proactively expand both domestic and international markets—striving to elevate China’s pervaporation membrane technology, comprehensively advance related industries, and relentlessly contribute to the realization of our nation’s ambitious vision of “clear waters and blue skies.”
