A well system for handling downhole particles. The well system may include a mud pump, a shaker including a corrugated shaker screen, a drill string, an imaging device, and a data acquisition system that may include a processor. The processor may be programmed to determine a cross-sectional area of a portion of the corrugated shaker screen occupied by the downhole particles in a first image of the images based on the first image, on a known profile of corrugations of the corrugated shaker screen and a known distance and angle between the imaging device and the corrugated shaker screen to determine a volume of the downhole particles on the portion of the corrugated shaker screen in the first image based on the cross sectional area occupied by downhole particles, a velocity of the downhole particles moving across the corrugated shaker screen, and an image generation rate.
