About Long tons per day
The long ton per day (long ton/d) equals 1 016.0469088/86400 ≈ 0.011760 kg/s, used in legacy British mining reports for daily colliery output and in Naval fuel-consumption logs. Historic British Admiralty fuel expenditure tables for Royal Navy warships used long ton/d for bunker coal or oil consumption at various speeds. 1 long ton/d ≈ 0.011760 kg/s ≈ 1.016 t/d.
About Metric tons per day
The metric tonne per day (t/d) equals 1 000/86400 ≈ 0.011574 kg/s, standard in hydrometallurgy, wastewater treatment, and environmental mass-balance reporting. A large copper smelter processes 2 000-3 000 t/d of ore; a modern desalination plant produces 100 000-500 000 t/d of potable water; IPCS industrial emission guidelines use t/d for stack mass rates. 1 t/d ≈ 0.011574 kg/s ≈ 1.102 short ton/d.
