AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 850°F. According to the MARPOL Annex VI regulations, the minimum allowable flue gas outlet temperature for a continuous-fed shipboard incinerator while in operation is 850°F (450°C). This temperature requirement is intended to ensure complete combustion of the waste and minimize the emission of pollutants. The other options are incorrect because A) 450°C is lower than the required minimum temperature, and B) 650°F and D) 1050°F are outside the specified range of 850°F.
