Research Abstract	ELV traceability system had installed in Yoshimura co., ltd. Miyagi Auto Recycle Center. That system had achieved high performance of ELV traceability. After The 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake, there were a lot of tsunami flooded ELV. This system had effected on find ELV owners and rapid recycling. Eco-R co., ltd. had developed power generation car which was made by ELV parts. Huge motorization is progressing in China. The recycling technology has been introducing from Korea and Japan. But a little of Chinese people think that, it is rather good to reuse ELV for vehicle than break it down to be material. Between Japan and economically developing Asian countries, there is a vertical recycling structure.
