You pasteurize it (you heat it up REALLY high). It's like washing your hands with hot water: it kills the germs

Dirt is the root of being dirty and if you or something (like dirt) were dirty, it would mean that something other than the original material (like your skin that got dirty) is not the same as the dirty part (if that makes sense).

For example, if your hands are dirty, it's because something other than your hands or skin is on them. So you wash them off to clean them. They are different surfaces or substances, they contrast each other to the point of being called dirty and in need of being cleaned. Your hands are dirty because dirt got on them, not because your hands or skin got on your hands, it's like a double negative. You can't clean dirt because its dirt, get it?

Now, having said that, dirt can be dirty dirt as in contaminated, but I suspect that is not what you are referring to. You can have a pile of dirt made up of only dirt and nothing else. Now let's say you throw a bag of sawdust onto your dirt pile. Now your dirt is technically dirty. You can "clean" it by sifting it to separate the two (or however many) substances, but you are merely removing another item, in this case the sawdust. But if you had the same pile of uncontaminated dirt and did nothing with it to contaminate it, then it would be "clean" dirt and not in need of cleaning.

Bottom line, you cannot clean dirt as you are referring to it.
