kilowatt-hour per short ton
Specific energyexact by definition
One kilowatt-hour per US short ton — 2000 pounds — equal to about 3968 J/kg. North American comminution and materials handling quote it, and it is about 10% larger than kWh per metric tonne.
Watch out: The short ton is 907.18 kg against the tonne's 1000, so kWh/ton and kWh/t differ by about 10%. Both get written "per ton" in running text, and in a grinding circuit sized on the difference that is a real error.
