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 Short tons per day
The short ton per day (ton/d, US) equals 907.18474/86400 ≈ 0.010499 kg/s, the capacity unit for mid-size mining operations, smelters, and US water-treatment chemical dosing. A small gold mine may process 500-1 000 short ton/d of ore; activated-sludge wastewater plants dose chemicals in short ton/d. 1 short ton/d ≈ 0.010499 kg/s ≈ 2 000 lb/d.
