Why convert mol/hour to millimol/minute?

Converting allows expressing molar flow rates at smaller time intervals and finer scales, which is useful in enzyme kinetics, process control, and metabolic studies.

In which fields is this conversion commonly applied?

It is widely used in chemical engineering, biochemical process monitoring, enzyme activity assessments, metabolic research, and reactor design.

Are there any drawbacks to using millimol/minute for large flows?

Yes, for very large flow rates, millimol/minute units can produce very large values that might be less practical for interpretation.
