It is definitely possible for a chemical company to produce a certain product through a thermodynamically unfavored process. An example of this process is endothermic reaction. The word endothermic means “taking in heat.” A constant input of energy, often in the form of heat, will keep an endothermic reaction going. For instance, an instant cold ice pack can get cold without putting it in the fridge or freezer. How is that? Endothermic chemical reaction.
