Dilute down the sink is fine with PLENTY of water. It only needs to be disposed of in a chemical pick up if it's been run through an engine due to the heavy metals it picks up.

hi
I do agree with Slartibartfast it is down the drain or covered with sawdust or sand and disposed in the rubbish bin
You should have MSDS for the brand you using I am sending you one that I have
