The use of ceramic membranes in membrane distillation (MD) holds the potential to address the global challenge of water scarcity by increasing freshwater availability. However, the application of ceramic membranes in MD faces obstacles due to their high production cost, inherent brittleness, and susceptibility to fouling/wetting on their surfaces. Thus, there is a pressing need to develop resilient ceramic membranes from cost-effective materials with omniphobic properties. In this study, an enhanced mechanical strength omniphobic mullite-kaolinite/stainless steel (SS) (M-SS) composite hollow fiber membranes (HFMs) that exhibit outstanding MD desalination performance were introduced. In the first stage of this study, the concentration of SS 316L powder, serving as the reinforcement material for the ceramic membrane, was varied between 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 and 12 wt.% to enhance
