The influence of elasticity of flexible walls on peristaltic transport of a dusty fluid with heat and mass transfer in a horizontal channel in the presence of chemical reaction has been investigated under long wavelength approximation. Expressions have been constructed for stream function, temperature and concentration by using perturbation technique. The effects of various parameters on heat and mass transfer characteristics of the flow are discussed through graphs.
