Applicable material to be welded on carbon steel

We have just completed seawater piping system here, the line were FBE internally coated. Our client is rejecting the vent and drains CS material and they want to be replaced with non corrosive materials. I would just want to know what would be the best solution for this, what would be the material can be use to this existing CS internally coated piping lines? Is there any material can be welded to the CS material other than the carbon steel? I appreciate your kind response.
