It depends on the fuel: it can be coal or oil or gas. Since these have very different densities, the volumes will be very different.

1 (kg / liters) per second = 3600 (kg / liters) per hour. So, multiply kg/l per second by 3,600 to get kg/l per hour.
Density of petroleum diesel is about 0.832 kg/l (6.943 lb/US gal) A short ton (2,000 pounds) equals 907.1847 kg So, (907.1847 kg / .832) = 1,090.36 liters in one ton
There are 1000 kilograms (kg) in a metric ton (or tonne). And there are about 0.264 gallons in a litre. Also, the density of diesel fuel is right at about 0.85 kilograms per litre. Since you have a metric ton of diesel fuel, that is 1000 kilograms of diesel fuel, you need to know how many litres of diesel fuel you have. Divide 1000 kg by 0.85 kg/litre and you'll get about 1176.5 litres. Now convert that to gallons by multiplying 1176.5 litres by 0.264 gallons/litre and you'll get about 310.6 gallons of diesel fuel in that metric ton you started with.
One liter of water is almost exactly one kilogram.
