Pytzer is a Python implementation of the Pitzer model for chemical activities in aqueous solutions [P91] plus solvers to determine the equilibrium state of the system.
Pytzer is in beta! Use at your own peril.
Due to its dependency on JAX, Pytzer can only be installed on Unix systems, although it does work on Windows via WSL.
Install with pip:
pip install pytzer
Note that you should also install the dependencies (especially NumPy) using pip, not conda, for best performance. This happens automatically with the above command if the dependencies are not already installed.
Once installed, you will need to set the environment variable JAX_ENABLE_X64=True. For example, using conda:
conda env config vars set JAX_ENABLE_X64=True
