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.
About Long tons per hour
The long ton per hour (long ton/h) equals 1 016.0469088/3600 ≈ 0.28224 kg/s, the traditional British equivalent of t/h still seen in pre-metric UK engineering datasheets and Lloyd's Register vessel capacity tables. An older British colliery might report winding-tower output in long ton/h; historic cement-kiln logs used long ton/h. 1 long ton/h ≈ 0.28224 kg/s ≈ 1.016 t/h.
