With a bit of modification it looks like it'd make a great still. ;-)

[edit] check your local laws for legality

Cheers.

Those spring loaded clamps look like holders so the pot and lid don't go anywhere.
I have a commercial sized dryer at work that uses those clamps to hold a maintenance cabinet door closed.

Had to get sleep
Not for cooking, but the pot may well have been intended for that before modification
Not for sterilizing, but lab/medical is the closest yet but no
Yes, the clamps hold the pot down and the lid on when in use.
Not a dryer.

Not a centrifuge, but it does have rotating parts.
and it isn't actually medical, that was just the closest compared to food/washing that had been guessed.

Hint, it does its work dry.
