I have synthesized nanocomposite membrane for removal of heavy metals from wastewater as well as antibacterial activity also done. I have done lab scale experiment of adsorption studies. Now I want to move to bigger scale including making of fixed bed column and then RO plant filters. I need stepwise guidance how to scale up my nanocomposite membrane to making industrial scale filter. Following are my queries:

1- Should I start with fixed bed column? How many layers of nanocomposite membrane should be installed in a column?

2- Is peristaltic pump better or dosage pump?

3- My goal is to filter 6000 L of wastewater. Is RO plant better option?

4- Uptil now I have prepared nanocomposite membranes in lab in petri dishes. For bulk production should I consult some vendor to make it into a filter? And how many layers per filter?

5- Which equipment I actually need to build a column including glassware and their sizes?

Thanks in advance for your guidance.
