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 second
The ounce per second (oz/s) equals 0.028349523125 kg/s, a practical US unit for moderate liquid or solid flow measurements. A garden hose delivering 1.5 US gal/min discharges water at roughly 2.1 oz/s; a small popcorn machine pops roughly 0.5-1 oz/s of popped corn at full rate. 1 oz/s = 0.028349523125 kg/s ≈ 0.0625 lb/s.
