Xiaobai asks the experts! How to check the remaining amount in the catalyst tank, balance agent tank, and waste agent tank?

Xiaobai asks the experts! Where can I check the inventory levels (remaining amounts) in the catalyst tank (fresh catalyst), the balance tank (regenerated catalyst), and the waste catalyst tank? Could you elaborate a bit more?
Measure the volume using a tank gauge, check the tonnage against the existing reference table, and calculate the monthly consumption by finding the difference
It is calculated using a gauge measurement based on volume.
We measure manually, and then use a calculation table to determine the remaining reserve
Measurement: Assign someone to use a tape measure to check the material level height every day. No high precision is required for catalysts; if an exact value is needed, it can be estimated based on the diameter of the container.

Calculate the total capacity and the free height; the values obtained represent the current capacity； Keep proper logistics records so that daily consumption can be calculated
We usually take measurements every 5 days; when no measurements are taken, we check the level gauge on the catalyst tank
So how do you determine the dense-phase reserve of the regenerator?
One can only check this using the DCS level gauge; the system should have a dedicated page for volume control, which shows the volume of catalyst in both the regenerator and the settler. Additionally, it is possible to estimate the volume of catalyst in the tank before adding the additive, and then again after addition, to get an approximate figure – though this estimate is not accurate due to losses that occur during the addition process.
