Parkhurst, D.L., and Appelo, C.A.J., 2013, Description of input and examples for PHREEQC version 3—A computer program for speciation, batch-reaction, one-dimensional transport, and inverse geochemical calculations: U.S. Geological Survey Techniques and Methods, book 6, chap. A43, 497 p.

Description & Use

PHREEQC is one of the major nowadays geochemical programs used for aqueous speciation modelling. For more information about the program and its use in geochemistry and chemistry, please visit the project homepage or check our attempts here.

Use in command line / shell:

phreeqc (then the user is prompted to type name of the input file, then output file and filnally the database file)
(in Windows command line)

or

./phreeqc (then the user is prompted to type name of the input file, then output file and filnally the database file)
(in Android shell).

The result will appear in the same location.

Note: The versions which are distributed in this site do not support plotting capabilities.

Program status

The current package contains PHREEQC binaries of version 3.4.0 (Ampere) compiled for the particular hardware platforms.

IMPORTANT: Although we provide here our specific PHREEQC packages, they are strongly based on the Notepad++ distribution except the main executable, our database, example files and few remarks. Please note that the effort of our team is to bring PHREEQC also to platforms other than i686 and x86_64, however, we are not authors of PHREEQC and did no scientific work concerning the code itself. For this, we gratefully acknowledge D.L. Parkhurst and C.A.J. Appelo.

The Windows version contains few essential dynamic link libraries and unix2dos executable which are part of MinGW runtime (MIT style license, please check the corresponding license file MinGW-license.txt).

For completeness, together with our newly proposed database and chemical examples, all other files from the standard PHREEQC distribution (incl. manual, geochemical sample files, default database files) are also packed.
Please note that some example files (which require plotting capabilities) will work only to produce the text output, not the graphs.

MinGW

The Windows version contains few essential dynamic link libraries which are part of MinGW runtime.
