Slurry flow in pipes is one of the techniques in developing the method of fluidization, especially in the work of sand by passing for the maintenance of estuary channel, port channel, and others. The slurry flow in the pipe determines the fluidization performance, therefore many researchers have studied the slurry flow system in various approaches. This analysis focuses on the factors that influence the flow of slurry in the perforated pipe based on literature studies. The results of the study indicate that several factors are grouped into main parameters such as pipeline parameters, liquid parameters, solid particle parameters and system parameters. All parameters are concluded through the approach of dimensionless numbers such as Reynold Numbers, Froude numbers, concentration, ratio of settling particle to pipe diameter, ratio of hydraulic gradient to mean flow velocity. These parameters have an effect on head loss, friction, drag reduction which controls the flow of slurry in the pipe media. In addition, the constant pressure distribution is a factor that affects the discharge in the slurry flow in the perforated pipe.
