Answer:

It is important to dispose of acids with very low pH (<2) safely. If the acid doesn’t have heavy metals or other toxic substances dissolved in it, neutralizing the pH to a less acidic level (pH 6.6-7.4) allows you to dispose of the substance in the standard sewer system. If heavy metals are present, the solution must be treated as hazardous waste and disposed of through the proper channels.

It is recommended that conc. acids shouldn't be disposed off in sinks. It should rather be diluted as much as possible by adding water or by neutralizing it with an equally strong base.
