We present start-to-end simulation study of the transport of a few pico-Coulomb, nanometer-emittance beam through an emittance exchange (EEX) beamline. EEX with nanometer-emittance beams has potential to enable research opportunities utilizing tunable and high quality attosecond bunches and nanometer-scale longitudinal bunch trains. To account future possibility of experimental demonstrations, the simulation implemented existing EEX beamline at Argonne Wakefield Accelerator (AWA) facility. Simulation was conducted using General Particle Tracer (GPT) code.
