In this article, we consider the convection-diffusion-reaction problem coupled the Darcy-Forchheimer problem by a non-linear external force depending on the concentration. We establish existence of a solution by using a Galerkin method and we prove uniqueness. We introduce and analyse a numerical scheme based on the finite element method. An optimal a priori error estimate is then derived for each numerical scheme. Numerical investigation are performed to confirm  the theoretical accuracy of the discretization.
