#CHINA-WUHAN-ELECTRO-WASTES PROCESSING PLANT (CN)
(110330) -- WUHAN, March 30, 2011 (Xinhua) -- Workers dismantle a wasted computer monitor in the Green Eco Electronic Products Recycling Plant in Wuhan City, capital of central China's Hubei Province, March 29, 2011. The plant, the first of this kind in Wuhan, is able to annually process 30,000 metric tons (tonnes) of electro-wastes, including the wasted TV sets, washing machines, refrigerators, air-conditioners, computers and CDs. The metallic powders separated from electro-wastes will be sold as industrial feedstock and the plastics will be processed as wood plastic composite. (Xinhua) (lfj)

Job seekers, many from South American countries, sit at rows of computers applying for jobs and unemployment benefits at the Toyota city branch of 'Hello Work', in Toyota city, Japan
Toyota City, near Nagoya, Japan. - May 2009
In the first 3 months of 2009 the numbers of people seeking work at the local Toyota city 'Hello Work' employment office rose 133% compared to the first quarter of 2008. This increase is due to the jobs lost in the industries and companies which serve and supply the Toyota car company and automobile industry, for which Toyota city is famous.

China E-waste Poisoning China
**EMBARGOED in UK until January 2008** Discarded computer circuit boards are piled ready for processing in Guiyu, China on Friday Dec. 6, 2007. Most of the world's e-waste is still processed in China and India. The EU have banned the practice but the United States has yet to implement legislation to prevent it.
China now produces more than a million tons of e-waste each year. Much of the world?s high-tech trash is exported to Asia, and 90 percent of this heads into China. The waste that comes from recycling electronic parts is highly toxic, releasing such poisonous metals as chromium, cadium, and lead. As much as 6.5 pounds of lead dust can be released when recycling electronic parts. (FOTO: DUKAS/WORLDPICTURENEWS)

Electronic Brain
YOU CAN'T BUST THIS BRAIN
Robot devices are playing an increasing role in science and industry . Typical is the mechanical '' brain '' at Manchester University which counts on electronic fingers and within hours solves mathematical problems which would take years to unravel with paper and pencil . The latest British achievement in electrical engineering is the Manchester Mark II computing machine . Research begun in 1947 under the direction of Dr . F.C. Williams. F.R.S., the university's Professor of Electrical Engineering .
PICTURE SHOWS :- David Edwards , another assistant lecturer , examines a hinged panel of valves . The valves are metal - encased . All other components are wired in behind the panel .
