Water at ambient atmospheric pressure boils at 100C. One way of raising the boiling point is to raise the surrounding pressure. If you raise the pressure surrounding the water to about 93 psi above atmospheric, it will boil at about 170C. Do not try this at home! Boiling water at this pressure is extremely dangerous and can severely burn you.
