Millimole per Hour (mmol/h)
Definition: A molar flow unit for millimoles passing a point per hour, used for slow, sustained small-scale dosing or feed processes.
History: Adopted in slow-infusion and controlled-release contexts, where an hourly rate better reflects a process's actual pace than a per-second or per-minute figure.
Current use: Used in slow chemical infusion protocols and small-scale continuous dosing systems in research and clinical laboratory settings.
Kilomole per Hour (kmol/h)
Definition: A molar flow unit expressing kilomoles passing a point per hour, matching the hourly production and mass-balance reporting rhythm common in process plants.
History: Adopted because plant mass and mole balances, shift reports, and production targets are conventionally tracked on an hourly basis in the chemical process industry.
Current use: The standard unit on process flow diagrams (PFDs) and mass balance sheets for continuous chemical plants and refineries.

About These Parameters
- Value
- The molar flow rate value you want to convert, expressed in the "From" unit. Accepts decimals.
- From Unit
- The unit your input value is currently measured in — a reactor feed spec's mol/s, or a plant mass-balance sheet's kmol/h.
- To Unit
- The unit you want the result converted into. Use the swap button to flip From and To instantly.
How Flow - Molar Conversion Works
The Formula
Every unit here is defined by a fixed multiplier relative to moles per second. To convert a value from one unit to another:
result = value × (factor of "From" unit ÷ factor of "To" unit)
For Millimole per Hour → Kilomole per Hour: multiply by 1E-06. For example, 1 mmol/h × 1E-06 = 1E-06 kmol/h.
Molar Flow vs. Mass Flow
This site's separate Flow - Mass Converter measures how much MASS (kilograms, pounds) passes a point per unit time, while this page measures how many MOLES pass instead. The two are related by molar flow = mass flow ÷ molar mass of the substance — but that conversion requires knowing exactly which gas or fluid is flowing, since every substance has a different molar mass (water is about 18 g/mol, while carbon dioxide is about 44 g/mol). Because of that substance-dependence, molar flow and mass flow can't be converted with a fixed multiplier the way the units on this page can — you always need the specific compound's molar mass as an extra input.
Why Moles Matter in Process Engineering
Balanced chemical equations are written in mole ratios — one mole of methane reacts with two moles of oxygen, for instance — so reactor mass balances, catalyst dosing, and conversion/yield calculations are all naturally done in moles rather than mass or volume. Molar flow also plugs directly into the ideal gas law (PV = nRT), letting engineers relate a gas stream's molar flow rate to its pressure, volume, and temperature without any substance-specific density lookup. This is why process flow diagrams and reactor design calculations almost always carry a molar flow rate figure alongside, or instead of, a mass or volumetric flow rate.
Example
A molar flow rate of 1 mmol/h equals 1E-06 kmol/h. For scale, a small laboratory continuous-flow reactor might run at only a few mmol/s, while a full-scale industrial ammonia synthesis reactor can process feed gas at hundreds of kmol/h.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many Kilomoles per Hour are in 1 Millimole per Hour?
1 Millimole per Hour (mmol/h) equals exactly 1E-06 Kilomoles per Hour (kmol/h).
What is molar flow rate used for?
Molar flow rate is used throughout chemical engineering to size reactors, calculate reaction conversion and yield, balance mass across a process, and apply the ideal gas law to gas streams — anywhere a calculation depends on the number of reacting particles rather than their mass or volume.
How do I convert molar flow to mass flow?
Multiply the molar flow rate by the substance's molar mass: mass flow = molar flow × molar mass. For example, 10 mol/s of water (molar mass 18.015 g/mol) is a mass flow of about 180.15 g/s. This site's units page can't do that step for you since it requires knowing which specific substance is flowing — use the site's separate Flow - Mass Converter once you have the mass figure.
How accurate are these conversions?
Every conversion factor used here is an exact, fixed multiplier relative to moles per second (a simple ratio of time-unit and metric-prefix scaling) — results are limited only by floating-point display precision, not by rounded conversion constants.
