[Api freshwater master safety?]

I had to clean it as it leaked in shipping and it got all over my hands while doing that. Got a full refund so shout out to aquariumsuplies. Basically found out that nitrate 1 is basically hydrochloric acid and that explains the burning. What do I do with the water after I have tested it, is it fine to put down the drain?
