In this paper, we study the Camassa–Holm type equation, which has applications in mathematical physics and engineering. Its applications extend across disciplines, contributing to our understanding of complex systems and helping to develop innovative solutions in diverse areas of research. Our main aim is to construct closed-form solutions of the equation using a powerful technique, namely the Lie group analysis method. Firstly, we derive the Lie point symmetries of the equation. Thereafter, the equation is reduced to non-linear ordinary differential equations using symmetry reductions. Furthermore, the solutions of the equation are derived using the extended Jacobi elliptic function technique, the simplest equation method, and the power series method. In conclusion, we construct conservation laws for the equation using Noether’s theorem and the multiplier approach, which plays a crucial role in understanding the behavior of non-linear equations, especially in physics and engineering, and these laws are derived from fundamental principles such as the conservation of mass, energy, momentum, and angular momentum.
