Standard Liter per minute (SLPM) refers to the flow rate of a gas at "standard conditions" (usually sea level pressure, room temperature..etc)

Liter per minute (LPM) is the flow rate at the conditions being measured.

This is an important distinction when measuring compressed gasses. One liter of compressed gas will expand to a higher volume at standard conditions.

To convert from liters per minute (L/min) to standard liters per minute (SLM), you would need to account for the temperature and pressure of the gas. Standard liters per minute represent the flow rate of gas at standard conditions of 0 degrees Celsius and 1 atmosphere pressure. To make the conversion, you would need to adjust the flow rate based on the actual temperature and pressure conditions.

You can't. Liters are a unit of volume; kilometers are a unit of distance.

Perhaps you mean cubic meters per hour...
