Can you use 12 gauge wire with 600 volt capacity to hook up an 300 amp 220 volt dryer?
I wouldn't, always safer to go heaver gauge. I recommend 8 gauge if you are going to be running any length of wire. Fire is never fun
I believe the above answer assumes the question was meant to read, "30 amp 220 volt dryer."
12 gauge wire WILL NOT carry 30 amps safely. You need to run #10 copper minimum. It is never a bad idea to upsize, such as the recommended #8, but it is not necessary if 30 amps is what you need.

What size wire for 220 volt dryer from breaker to outlet?
For a 220 volt dryer, a 10-gauge wire is typically used for the connection from the breaker to the outlet. It is important to ensure that the wire matches the amperage rating of your breaker to maintain safety and efficiency in the circuit. Consulting local electrical codes and a professional electrician is recommended for accurate specifications.
Can a dryer outlet be converted to 2 separate circuits?
Yes, it is possible to convert a dryer outlet into two separate circuits by rewiring and adding a new breaker for the second circuit. However, it's important to ensure that the electrical load and wiring capacity can accommodate the additional circuit to prevent overloading the system and ensuring safety. Consulting with a qualified electrician is recommended for this type of project.

No !
What 12 volt battery is best to replace 6 volt battery bank and retain ample reserve capacity?
If your load runs on 6 volts, you cannot replace it with a 12 volt battery. You will be exceeding the voltage rating of your load and will start a fire.If you want more amps (capacity) then you can wire more 6 volt batteries in parallel with the first.
Is there a device to operate a 220 volt dryer into two separate 110 volt outlets?
No and it wouldn't work. The wires in a standard plug (#14) even at 240 volts would not be large enough to handle the 30 amps (#10) that a dryer would need.
