Abstract
An autoclave including a Faraday cage, which when placed in a microwave oven sterilizes N95 masks or any other metal surgical devices through pressurized steam. The Faraday cage prevents metal inside the cage from arching when inside the microwave oven. Pressure build up occurs inside a container, which includes an umbrella valve. The container encloses the Faraday cage, which is adjustable to fit many sized objects.
