Some challenges, such as the destructive effects of constituents of the real fermentation broth on the membrane performances, the lethal effects of the membrane surface chemical modifiers on the microorganisms, and being expensive, are against this concept. For the first time, a continuous study on the one-step and low-cost preparation of superhydrophobic membranes for bioethanol separation is made to address these challenges. In our previous work, spraying as a fast, scalable, and low-cost procedure was applied to fabricate the one-layered active-layer hydrophobic (OALH) silicalite-1/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane on the low-cost mullite support. In this work, the spraying method was adopted to fabricate a two-layered active-layer superhydrophobic (TALS) silicalite-1/PDMS membrane, where the novel active layer consisted of two layers with different hydrophobicities and densities. Contact-ang fouling and biofouling. Eventually, the novel TALS membrane was found to have potential for biofuel recovery, especially bioethanol.Real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) are combined to calculate non-resonant and resonant Raman scattering cross sections of periodic systems, allowing for an explicit quantum mechanical description of condensed phase systems and environmental effects. It is shown that this approach to Raman spectroscopy corresponds to a short time approximation of Heller's time-dependent formalism for the description of Raman scattering. Two ways to calculate the frequency-dependent polarizability in a periodic system are presented (1) via the modern theory of polarization (Berry phase) and (2) via the velocity representation. Both approaches are found to be equivalent for a system of liquid (S)-methyloxirane with the computational setti
