Apparatus and methods for determining the liquid level of a canister are described. A magnetic field generated by a floating magnet within the canister is measured by a plurality of magnetic sensors outside of the canister. Methods of calibrating the magnetic sensors and measuring the location of the floating magnet are also described.

An object of the present invention is to provide a multilayer container in which yellowing of a regenerated polyester resin at the time of recycle is suppressed and a method for producing the same as well as a method for producing a single-layer container. Furthermore, another object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a regenerated polyester resin from the foregoing multilayer container and single-layer container. The multilayer container of the present invention includes at least one polyester resin composition layer containing a polyester resin (X) and an amino group-containing compound (A) having a yellowing-suppressing ability; and at least one polyamide resin layer containing a polyamide resin (Y).
