“We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; Rather, we borrow it from our children.”

Advantek is building a cleaner more sustainable world. We are doing so by using injection wells to minimize the impacts from human activities on our land, air, water, and climate through better management of complex and liquid wastes. Advantek uses Deep ExpertiseTM developed over the past 40 plus years by our principals who invented, perfected, and promulgated pioneering techniques for the permanent sequestration of complex wastes.

Advantek brings our Deep ExpertiseTM to some of the world’s most complex wastes including: oilfield waste, biosolids, CO2, NORM, superfunds, hazardous waste, and organic wastes (used fats, oils and greases, food waste, concentrated animal feed lot waste, etc.).
