The chemical industry runs on a fragile premise: that feedstocks will always flow from centralized, fossil fuel dependent sources. A geopolitical hiccup or a natural disaster can ripple through supply chains, leaving manufacturers scrambling for inputs. Rise Reforming, a YC S26 startup, is betting that the future of chemical production is not in sprawling refineries but in shipping containers parked next to wastewater plants and landfills, turning waste gases into valuable chemicals.
