Phreeqpython Logo

PhreeqPython is an object oriented wrapper around the (VIPhreeqc) extension of the Phreeqc chemical calculation engine (Parkhurst&Appello), written in Python.

Features

PhreeqPython greatly simplifies adding solutions and querying their properties:

pp = PhreeqPython()
# add a solution consisting of 1 mmol CaCl2 and 2 mmol NaHCO3
solution = pp.add_solution_simple({'CaCl2':1.0,'NaHCO3':2.0})
print(solution.pH)               # 8.12
print(solution.sc)               # 427.32
print(solution.si('Calcite'))    # 0.38
print(solution.species['HCO3-']) # 0.0019
print(solution.elements['Cl'])   # 0.002 mol

Allows for simple chemical and precipitation/dissolution reactions:

solution.add('NaOH',0.5)
print(solution.pH)              # 9.47
solution.desaturate('Calcite')  # desaturate to SI 0
print(solution.total('Ca'))     # 0.497 mmol

And even allows for addition, devision and multiplication of solutions to form new mixtures:

solution2 = pp.add_solution_simple({'KCl':1.0})
# create mixture of 50% solution and 50% solution2
solution3 = solution * 0.5 + solution2 * 0.5
print(solution3.total('K','mol'))     # 0.0005 mol

This project makes use of the (Phreeqc) (David Parkhurst & Tony Apello) calcution engine and is (partly) derived from the (PhreeqPy) extension for IPhreeqc (Mike Müller)
