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.
About Pounds per hour
The pound per hour (lb/h) equals 0.45359237/3600 ≈ 1.260×10⁻⁴ kg/s, the dominant unit in US process engineering and steam-boiler rating. Packaged steam boilers are rated in lb/h of steam output (typical range 100-2 000 lb/h); HVAC cooling-coil latent loads are calculated in lb/h of moisture; flue-gas emission inventories are reported in lb/h per stack. 1 lb/h ≈ 1.260×10⁻⁴ kg/s.
