It depends on many factors below;
1. Velocity
2. Amount and type of liquid HC
3. Temperature
4. NH3 & H2S (and HCl) partial pressure
5. NH4HS concentration
6. Wash water treatment/ Water quality
7. Dew point control
8. pH
9. Materials
10. Others
Normally the recommended materials may be upgraded according to the severity.
CS < (316 SS) < 2205 DSS < Alloy 825 < Alloy 625 < Titanium or Alloy C276

...and decreasing availability.
Actually all of those alloys are more or less available, depending on the porduct for that you need.
My personal comment would be to not look at 625. It costs nearly as much as a "C" type alloy and it does not have as good of corrosion resistance. I would look at the trade offs between 825 and a "C" alloy (C276, C22, 686, 59, this last one being easiest to weld).
