About Pounds per day
The pound per day (lb/d) equals 0.45359237/86400 ≈ 5.249×10⁻⁶ kg/s, used in wastewater engineering for reporting biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) loads, nutrient loadings, and sludge production. US NPDES permits set effluent mass-load limits in lb/d; a municipal WWTP serving 10 000 people generates roughly 1 500-3 000 lb/d of dry sludge solids. 1 lb/d ≈ 5.249×10⁻⁶ kg/s.
About Ounces per day
The ounce per day (oz/d) equals 0.028349523125/86400 ≈ 3.281×10⁻⁷ kg/s, used in US clinical nutrition (tube-feeding rates, oral-supplement intake) and very-low flow industrial metering. A patient receiving 6 oz of enteral formula per hour (via a drip-tube) receives ≈144 oz/d. 1 oz/d ≈ 3.281×10⁻⁷ kg/s.
