It's a cross section of a piece of wastewater treatment equipment, called a Rim-Flo clarifier. Basically, water is let into the tank, where solids settle to the bottom and are collected, while floating scum is skimmed off the surface. Moving water is kept on the perimeter of the tank, between the tank wall and influent baffle, apparently allowing for a nice settling action of poopie in the calm center area of the tank! This image was created in 3D Studio Max.
In another graphic for Siemens, I remember placing a yellow rubber duck in the tank. I think it was art depicting a grit collector tank. If I can find that image, I'll post that as well! :)
