g/mintost/day
Convert grams per minute (g/min) to short tons per day (st/day).
Factor1 g/min = 0.001587328 st/day
Converter
g/min
Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7
Result
st/day
Rendered to 6 significant figures.
Formula
Formula
st/day = g/min × 0.001587328
Multiply any value in grams per minute by 0.001587328 to obtain the value in short tons per day.
Worked example
Convert 1000 g/min to st/day.
- 01Start with 1000 g/min.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 0.001587328 = 1.58733 st/day.
Result1000 g/min = 1.58733 st/day

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from g/min to st/day?
1 g/min equals 0.001587328 st/day. To convert, multiply the value in grams per minute by 0.001587328.
How do I convert 1 g/min to st/day?
1 g/min = 0.00158733 st/day. For any value, multiply by 0.001587328.
How do I convert st/day back to g/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 629.9894. So 1 st/day = 629.989 g/min.
When would I need to convert gram per minute to short ton per day?
Mass flow conversions between g/min and st/day are common in material balances, process stream summaries, bulk solids handling, custody transfer, and equipment sizing where kg/hr, t/hr, lb/hr, and lb/s may all appear in different datasheets or vendor documents.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
