Air Liquide Advanced Technologies U.S. LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 29 CPC subclasses with 76.9% of grants classified under B01D (Separation). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Air sits between Asahi Yukizai Corporation and Apollo Tyres Global R&D B.V..
Air Liquide Advanced Technologies U.S. LLC shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
