I would like to use a 200 bar file of EQ3/6 with GWB. How can I convert an EQ 3/6 database to the format of a GWB database ?

Paul, converting the EQ3/6 database requires:

1) re-writing the reactions to the basis set of GWB.

2) reformatting the info to the GWB thermo-file format.

This functionality is something we are working on for T-Rex (the Geochem Thermo Archive) - but it's all still in alpha stage while we nail down the specifics of the XML definition for thermo data.

For anyone who comes across this old post, in GWB 2023 the TEdit app can be used to import any EQ3/6 dataset to GWB format. And conversely, GWB datasets using the b-dot and h-m-w models can be exported to EQ3/6 format. For more information, please see 9.3.2 Importing EQ3/6 datasets and 9.3.3 Exporting EQ3/6 datasets in the GWB Essentials Guide.
