I'd put it on both sides of both disks to ensure none of the pellets escape. Use a hot glue gun to secure it to the disks. Run all the flow you want until the cows come home. Bob's you're uncle.

I have this mesh in my TLF reactor running Biopellets (on one side only hence the recommendation to put it on both if you're intending to nearly fill the reactor) and it's heavily fluidizing the pellets and they all stay in the reactor.
