Because heat destroys bacteria. Heating an object to high temperature kills of harmful organisms.
Conduction
When a substance is heated up, it emit heat radiation. In such way substance keep on losing heat energy. Thus a way that increase heat losing can lower heat of substance. Water can used as heat absorber.
Ultraviolet radiation
Objects that are nonconductors of heat, also known as insulators, include materials such as rubber, wood, plastic, and glass. These materials have a low thermal conductivity, meaning they do not easily transfer heat. As a result, they are commonly used to prevent or reduce heat transfer in various applications, such as insulation for buildings, electrical cables, and thermal containers.
Yes. Shortwave ultraviolet and gamma radiation are often used to sterilize foodstuffs and spices.
Filtration: used to sterilize heat sensitive materials such as vaccines
There are several uses for a laboratory burner. These burners can be used to heat and sterilize objects. They may also be used to cause certain items to combust.
Flash sterilization is a process used to clean objects. Rapid penetration of steam is used to sterilize and clean the items.
There are many objects that can be used for conducting heat, one of the main ones is, metals such as iron. gold, etc. There are also few plastics that conduct heat as well.
You really should not be reusing needles to tattoo someone. If you are going to though, the only way to properly sterilize them is by using an autoclave. An autoclave uses extreme pressure and heat to kill germs and bacteria.
Heat is often used to sterilize soil. For small amounts it can be heated in an oven. For larger opererations there are large steamers that heat the soil and kill off weed seeds as well as micro-organisms. Chemical methods, such as fumigation, are also used in some agricultural practices. Heat is often used to sterilize soil. For small amounts it can be heated in an oven.

It is used to heat / burn objects.
UV light radiation kills bacteria and can sterilize utensils (UV rays are used to sterilize goggles in the laboratory, for example.
As most plastics used in specimen tubes will melt if sterilized with heat the plastic tubes are normally single use
To heat the earth. Also for solar powered objects.
