FAQ

What is the conversion factor from kg/min to st/day?
1 kg/min equals 1.587328 st/day. To convert, multiply the value in kilograms per minute by 1.587328.
How do I convert 1 kg/min to st/day?
1 kg/min = 1.58733 st/day. For any value, multiply by 1.587328.
How do I convert st/day back to kg/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.6299894. So 1 st/day = 0.629989 kg/min.
When would I need to convert kilogram per minute to short ton per day?
Mass flow conversions between kg/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).
