Abstract : Electromagnetohydrodynamic (EMHD) is very important because of its numerous advantages such as flow control in fluidics networks, fluid pumping, thermal reactors, mixing, fluid stirring, liquid chromatography, and micro coolers. Based on the above applications in this article discussed the electromagnetic forces on the SWCNT/water flow with microorganisms over a Riga plate subject to slip effects. In addition, the uniform heat source/sink effect is used in the energy equation, as well as the thermophoretic effect in the concentration equation. The governing nonlinear system of partial differential equations (PDEs) was reduced to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by applying the appropriate similarity variables. Hence, Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg (RKF-45) method was applied to numerically solve the extremely nonlinear system. Based on the analysis of the results, it is worth concluding that raising the role of slip effects lowers the velocity, temperature, and concentration curves, while increasing the solid volume fraction increases the temperature, concentration, and motile microorganism density.
