The solarclave could sterilize medical devices in areas without reliable electricity. Though the steam-generating autoclave has long been the standard method of sterilizing medical equipment, this could change with the solarclave, a new solar-powered device developed by engineers at Rice University. The research team designed the solarclave to function without an external electricity source. Though MIT created a similar device, this is the first to pass FDA sterilization tests.
