About Short tons per second
The short ton per second (ton/s, US) equals 907.18474 kg/s, used for the very highest industrial and military throughput rates. The Space Shuttle Main Engine consumed propellant at ≈480 kg/s LOX + 160 kg/s LH2 ≈ 640 kg/s ≈ 0.71 ton/s; a large blast-furnace tap discharges molten iron at 1-3 ton/s. 1 short ton/s = 907.18474 kg/s = 2 000 lb/s.
About Milligrams per minute
The milligram per minute (mg/min) equals 10⁻⁶/60 ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁸ kg/s, the preferred unit for laboratory peristaltic pump output and aerosol generator calibration. Metered-dose inhalers deliver 100-500 µg of active compound per actuation; at 1 actuation per minute that is 0.1-0.5 mg/min. 1 mg/min = 1/60 mg/s ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁸ kg/s.
