M'zaka za m'ma 1980, chifukwa cha kuchepa kwazinthu za carbonndi kuchuluka kwa phindu la zinthu za carbon, mabizinesi a carbon nthawi zambiri anali ndi phindu pazachuma, ndipo mabizinesi a carbon anakwera mofulumira m’dziko lonselo.Komabe, chifukwa cha kusowa patsogolo zodziwikiratu chigawo carbon, lonse mpweya makampani lonse ndi yaing'ono, n'zovuta kupanga mphamvu mpikisano ogwira.Kuphatikiza apo, pali kuchuluka kwazinthu zotsika mtengo, kusakwanira komanso kufunikira kwa zinthu zotsika mtengo, komanso kapangidwe kamakampani ka carbon.Chiyembekezo cha chitukuko cha zomera za carbon chikugwirizana kwambiri ndi ndondomeko ya makina apamwamba a carbon automatic batching.

Zopangira zida za kaboni ndi zinthu za kaboni ndi zida za carbon.Kapangidwe kawo kamankhwala, mawonekedwe a morphological ndi zinthu zakuthupi ndi zamankhwala ndizosiyana kwambiri chifukwa cha magwero osiyanasiyana ndi njira zopangira.Malinga ndi thupi boma akhoza kugawidwa mu olimba zipangizo (akaphatikiza) ndi madzi zopangira (zomatira ndi impregnators).

Pakati pawo, zinthu zopangira kaboni zimatha kugawidwa kukhala: zopangira phulusa zambiri komanso zopangira phulusa molingana ndi zomwe zili muzonyansa.Phulusa lazinthu zopangira phulusa nthawi zambiri zimakhala zosakwana 1%, monga petroleum coke, asphalt coke, ndi zina zotero. Phulusa la zipangizo za polyash nthawi zambiri zimakhala pafupifupi 10%, mongacoke metallurgical, anthracite ndi zina zotero.Kuphatikiza apo, zinthu zobwerera zomwe zimapangidwira, monga kuphwanya ma graphite, zitha kugwiritsidwanso ntchito ngati zida zolimba.Chifukwa cha maudindo osiyanasiyana komanso kugwiritsa ntchito zida zosiyanasiyana zopangira, zofunikira zawo zimasiyananso.
