Convert Million litres per day to Cubic feet per day
Convert Million litres per day (ML/d) to Cubic feet per day (ft³/d) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
ft³/d = ML/d × 35314.66672
About Million litres per day
The million litres per day (ML/d or MLD) equals 1000/86400 ≈ 0.011574 m³/s, the standard capacity unit for water-treatment plants, sewage-treatment works, and desalination facilities in the UK, India, and much of the Commonwealth. A small town water-treatment works processes 5-20 ML/d; the Beckton Sewage Treatment Works in London treats ≈700 ML/d. 1 ML/d ≈ 0.011574 m³/s = 1 000 m³/d.
About Cubic feet per day
The cubic foot per day (ft³/d) equals 0.028316846592/86400 ≈ 3.277×10⁻⁷ m³/s, found in US oil-and-gas production reports for low-rate gas wells and groundwater monitoring wells. A marginal coalbed-methane well producing 50 Mcf/d (50 000 ft³/d) of gas represents a modest but economic flow; residential water-well yield tests report in ft³/d. 1 ft³/d ≈ 3.277×10⁻⁷ m³/s.
