I think you'd be best contacting a waste management company to remove it

one with sodium hydroxide,so you can see my concern.. also if you get headaches and a red face from the extraction, is that bad.

Sodium hydroxide is commonly used as a drain cleaner. I'm pretty sure you should just be able to pour it down the drain. But if you're worried or something, you could always dilute the base with water. Or add acid(like vinegar) to balance the PH.

The only thing that could have gave you a headache is the naphtha just don't take big whiffs buddy. its the same with every solvent and gas kinda weird you dont know that , unless its intentional whiff its relativily not dangereous . get some fresh air
For the disposal , used napthath that cant be recycled have to be put in a 5 gallon plastic container for disposal. Dont throw it it the sink . its not good . once you have the full 5 gallon get in contact with a disposal compagnie or you can go to a disposal center.
your red/purple/black mix can be thrown in the sink witout major conern . its simply vinegar salt bark and toilet drainer like Achillita said if you think the mix is really basic you can add vinegar before throwing it. but if youre really concerned put it in your 5 gallon disposal bucket. and when its full go dispose it safely.
BTW it can cost up to 80 $ to simply dispose of a 5 gallon of solvent. Source : I work in the environmental waste and recycling industrie since 4 years

Oh crap! I didn't even think of the naphtha that was being used. Thanks for catching that. Unless OP is doing LARGE amounts of DMT extraction, a 5 gallon bucket should last a while.
If you don't mind me asking Jean, what do they usually do with naphtha or other solvents?

there is usualy 2 choice , they can wash your solvent and recycle it with the good equipement . but what they usually do is bury it in a safe tank under the ground.
Edit: or it is being incenirated/burned but thats mainly in china that they do this
oh and yea a 5 gallon bucket should last you a freakin while ,In the best world you would recycle your solvent everytime and wouldnt need a bucket. but some people do a defat step which resuslt in a solvent waste so they need a container

any acids or bases, can be neutralized, or stored and used for the next run.
diluted to safe levels...
or simply flushed down the drain.
or used as weed killer.
the most harmful thing in dmt tek is naptha, that which isnt evaporated, can be reserved.

Could you keep that naphtha and just use it for starting your charcoal grill, filling your zippo, and removing stickers?

Sodium Hydroxide/Lye = flush it Naphtha = evaporate it (next to an open window or outside)
