I am not sure if I fully understand what you want to do here but I
guess you can extract "93600000" part easier using "EPOCH" of EXTRACT
function.
SELECT EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM i1) AS epoch_i1, EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM i2) AS epoch_i2
FROM ( SELECT '1 day 2 hours'::interval AS i1, '26 hours'::interval AS i2) AS s;
epoch_i1 | epoch_i2
--------------+--------------
93600.000000 | 93600.000000
