For steam piping at that temperature I don't know off the top of my head, steam piping is often just carbon steel, same material as I've suggested for diesel loading/unloading but that's not going to work at 450C.
For waste water, you'll need to provide some details where the water is coming from, pressure, temperature, what's in it, etc. I've seen anything from carbon steel to FRP.

RE: Material selection
for steam you can use the same material, bat the temperature shall be limited at 427 C max. Over Carbon moly steel or low alloy steel shall be used.
for waste water selection depends by water composition
