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 UK pints per second

The UK (imperial) pint per second (pt/s) equals 4.54609×10⁻³/8 ≈ 5.683×10⁻⁴ m³/s. The UK pint (20 fl oz) is 20% larger than the US pint. It is used in British brewery and beverage-filling lines - a canning line filling 0.568 L (1 pt) cans at 10 cans/s processes exactly 10 UK pt/s. 1 UK pt/s ≈ 5.683×10⁻⁴ m³/s ≈ 1.201 US pt/s.
