A combined cycle power plant that includes a first gas turbine engine including a first turbine section, a second gas turbine engine including a second turbine section having an aft outlet configured to discharge an exhaust gas stream, an emissions reduction system configured to receive the exhaust gas stream discharged from the second gas turbine engine, and configured to remove oxides of nitrogen from the exhaust gas stream, and an interstage extraction system communicatively coupled with the first turbine section. The interstage extraction system is configured to selectively extract turbine extraction air from the first turbine section for providing heat to the emissions reduction system.

A gas turbine engine includes a cracking device that is configured to decompose an ammonia flow into a flow that contains more hydrogen (H2) than ammonia (NH3), a first separation device that separates hydrogen downstream of the cracking device, wherein residual ammonia and nitrogen are exhausted as a residual flow. The separated flow contains more hydrogen than ammonia, and nitrogen is exhausted separately as a hydrogen flow. A combustor is configured to receive and combust the hydrogen flow from the separation device to generate a gas flow. A compressor section is configured to supply compressed air to the combustor. A turbine section is in flow communication with the gas flow produced by the combustor and is mechanically coupled to drive the compressor section.

A mixer assembly for a gas turbine engine. The mixer assembly includes a housing and a fuel injection port. The housing has a passage formed therein, and the housing includes a passage wall facing the passage. The fuel injection port is fluidly connected to a fuel source and is configured to inject a hydrocarbon fuel into the passage. At least a portion of the passage wall is a coated passage wall. The coated passage wall is (i) coated with a layer of a catalytic metal and (ii) located downstream of the fuel injection port.
