Kinec_v3.dat

Thermodynamic and kinetic database for use in PHREEQC, combining data from Carbfix.dat, llnl.dat, and curated kinetic parameters from:

1- Heřmanská, M., Voigt, M.J., Marieni, C., Declercq, J., Oelkers, E.H. (2022). A comprehensive and internally consistent mineral dissolution rate database: Part I: Primary silicate minerals and glasses. Chemical Geology, 597, 120807. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemgeo.2022.120807

2- Heřmanská, M., Voigt, M.J., Marieni, C., Declercq, J., Oelkers, E.H. (2023). A comprehensive and internally consistent mineral dissolution rate database: Part II: Secondary silicate minerals. Chemical Geology, 636, 121632. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemgeo.2023.121632

📌 Use with PHREEQC via KINETICS blocks.
📎 See file header for references, usage instructions, and parameter definitions.

Current Release

  • Kinec_v3_4.dat (Sep 01, 2025)
    • Corrected solid-solution SR definitions by replacing '*' with '^' (exponents for end-member coefficients)
    • Fixed control flow in solid-solution kinetics (line 4 now goes to 10 instead of 1000 or 100).
    • Added guard in SA calculation (line 3) to avoid zero-divide; uses fixed SA if m0 ≤ 0.
    • Carbonate rate expressions: corrected missing surface-area factor; r_plus_c now multiplied by S.

About

This database contains the parameters for calculating mineral dissolution rates for primary and secondary silicate minerals using the equations and parameters reported by Hermanska et al. (2022, 2023), # and dissolution rates for other mineral systems using the equations and parameters reported by Oelkers and Addassi (2025).
