If you use Angular >2, I made a Pipe inspired by @hai-alaluf answer.

import {Pipe, PipeTransform} from "@angular/core";

@Pipe({
  name: "duration",
})

export class DurationPipe implements PipeTransform {

  public transform(value: any, args?: any): any {

    // secs to ms
    value = value * 1000;
    const days = Math.floor(value / 86400000);
    value = value % 86400000;
    const hours = Math.floor(value / 3600000);
    value = value % 3600000;
    const minutes = Math.floor(value / 60000);
    value = value % 60000;
    const seconds = Math.floor(value / 1000);
    return (days ? days + " days " : "") +
      (hours ? hours + " hours " : "") +
      (minutes ? minutes + " minutes " : "") +
      (seconds ? seconds + " seconds " : "") +
      (!days && !hours && !minutes && !seconds ? 0 : "");
  }
}
