Different types die at different temps. Thermus aquaticus can live at 131 degrees Fahrenheit.

most all will die at 212f at 15psi.

Good call. I probably shouldn't have said anything.

So you are saying even at 212 degrees some will still live? That's insane. 250 degrees seems to be the consensus even at 235 i dont think mold or bacteria will live but everyone seems to be about 15 PSI.

I think 212f at 15psi is equivalent to over 250f. I'm not sure. Basically if you PC something at 15psi it will be sterile.

If you increase pressure, the boiling point of water increases, this means that the water can get much hotter before it boils.
That's why your pressure cooker boils water instantaneously when you drop a little bit on the outside, it's hotter than the boiling point of water.
