Convert Picomoles per second to Kilomoles per hour
Convert Picomoles per second (pmol/s) to Kilomoles per hour (kmol/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kmol/h = pmol/s × 3.600000000e-12
About Picomoles per second
The picomole per second (pmol/s) equals 10⁻¹² mol/s, the scale of neurotransmitter release at individual synapses and elution peaks in capillary electrophoresis. Cardiac troponin release from ischaemic myocytes is estimated at 1-10 pmol/s per cell; sub-microlitre continuous-flow microreactors in drug-discovery automation operate at this throughput. 1 pmol/s = 10⁻¹² mol/s = 1000 fmol/s.
About Kilomoles per hour
The kilomole per hour (kmol/h) equals 1000/3600 ≈ 0.27778 mol/s, the dominant molar flow unit in European and international process engineering. Equipment datasheets for distillation columns, heat exchangers, compressors, and chemical reactors all specify flows in kmol/h. A 500 MW gas turbine power plant burns natural gas at ≈50-80 kmol/h. 1 kmol/h ≈ 0.27778 mol/s ≈ 2.205 lb-mol/h.
