Improved methods andor techniques for processing andor extracting materials from cocoa beans. The system executes one or more search queries to search stored articles and receives results of the executed one or more search queries, where the results identify selected articles of the stored articles. The novel method can include mixing zirconium-alkoxide and an alcohol, forming preparation one, followed by separately dissolving completely de-ionized water and a polymeric steric stabilizer in an alcohol forming preparation two. More specifically, in some embodiments, the curable compositions include a vinyl polymer bearing alkenyl or thiol terminal functional group and a cross-linking agent having the opposing functionality, i. Process gas is less costly and less complicated and quickly accomplishes substantial degassing rendering the liquid sulfur much safer in storage and transportation.
