When it comes to cleaning, it's important to know why you're cleaning. Would an ultrasonic bath suffice? Or are these valves for oxygen service? If so, you might have to move to a dust-free clean room.

Generally speaking, 300 series steel is sufficient for Amine service, but this depends on the operating parameters. Specifically, pressure, temperature and the type of amine (MEA, DGA, DIPA, MDEA or DEA) as well as a possible build-up of heat stable amine salts which can accelerate corrosion...

Such a broad objective will get you a infinite amount of information!
Before you start collecting it, you might want to narrow down your efforts by deciding the valve types you want to work with, the design and testing standards, maybe a size and pressure range, and the main body/trim...
Basic inner diameter values are used as parameters related to wall thickness and consequent pressure rating, and inside diameter is the nominal bore value, which is related to flow calculations.

Snoprey, what kind of "corrosive matetrial" is being discharged? Iron (whether cast or ductile) might not make the cut if depending on what's passing through the valves. You might want to share process data so that we can offer better feedback.

If the valve body says "316L", this could be a stainless steel forged A182 F316L body. On the other hand, the same marking seems to show that this is is a 4" valve. Is this so? In that case, chances are that this is not forged (even though the 316L marking might suggest otherise).
