Re: PHREEQC




I don't know if you can do what you want or not. I can tell you what the
program will accept, and then you can try to figure out whether you can
make meaningful calculations.

The main problem with your input file is that each component in the solid
solution must be defined as a PHASE. You can not nest solid solutions 1, 2,
and 3, in SOLID_SOLUTION 4. Thus you either have to define your solid
solution in terms of the fundamental component CaO, Fe(OH)2, Al2O3, SiO2,
etc. and you would probably have to combine CaO from all of the different
places with a single coefficient. Or you have to define PHASES that have
specified concentrations, which then participate in the solid solution, for
example (CaO)3(SiO2)2(H2O)3. You would have to define a reaction and an
equilibrium constant for each of these phases. I think the second approach
is probably closer to what you need to do.

The following input file uses a simplified version of your input file and
the first approach. The file simply reacts the solid solution to
equilibrium with the solution. I suspect that defining  the H2O for the
solid solution in this way is problematic; it tends to put all of the water
from the solution into the solid solution and makes a concentrated acetate
solution. Anyway, perhaps this will get you started and you can write back
with your next problem. I'm not promising the program will work for your
system, but we can give it at try.
