2. The system of claim 1, comprising the steam system configured to receive the heated working fluid from the heat exchanger as a make-up water supply of working fluid to replace working fluid lost within a process of the steam system.
3. The system of claim 2, wherein the steam system comprises a deaerator configured to receive the heated working fluid from the heat exchanger and remove at least one of one or more corrosive substances and/or dissolved gases from the heated working fluid to produce a deaerated heated working fluid.
4. The system of claim 3, wherein the steam system comprises:
a boiler configured to receive the deaerated heated working fluid from the deaerator to generate a steam; and
a steam turbine coupled to the boiler, wherein the steam turbine is configured to drive a load using at least the steam.
5. The system of claim 1, wherein the engine comprises a gas turbine engine.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the engine comprises the at least one compressor section configured to compress the gas, and the engine fluid comprises the gas.
7. The system of claim 6, wherein the gas comprises an oxidant.
8. The system of claim 1, wherein the engine comprises a lubricant path configured to circulate a lubricant, and the engine fluid comprises the lubricant.
9. The system of claim 1, wherein the engine comprises a coolant path configured to circulate a coolant, and the engine fluid comprises the coolant.
10. The system of claim 1, wherein the working fluid comprises a replacement make-up water, and the heated working fluid comprises a heated replacement make¬up water.
11. The system of claim 1, comprising a controller configured to regulate operation of one or more valves to control a flow of the working fluid or the heated working fluid through the heat exchanger.
12. The system of claim 1, comprising a controller configured to regulate operation of one or more valves to control a flow of the heated working fluid exported from the heat exchanger to the steam system.
13. A system, comprising:
a deaerator of a steam system, wherein the deaerator is configured to receive a heated working fluid exported from a heat exchanger coupled to at least one of a compressor section, a lubricant path, or a coolant path of an engine, wherein the deaerator is configured to remove one or more corrosive substances and/or dissolved gases from the heated working fluid to produce a deaerated heated working fluid prior to steam generation in the steam system.

14. The system of claim 13, comprising the heat exchanger coupled to the deaerator.
15. The system of claim 13, comprising a controller configured to control a flow and a temperature of the heated working fluid to facilitate deaeration of the heated working fluid in the deaerator.
16. The system of claim 13, comprising:
a boiler configured to receive the deaerated heated working fluid from the deaerator, wherein the boiler generates a steam based on heat exchange between the deaerated heated working fluid and an exhaust gas from the engine; and
a steam turbine coupled to the boiler, wherein the steam turbine is configured to drive a load with the steam.
17. The system of claim 13, comprising the engine, wherein the engine comprises
a gas turbine engine having the heat exchanger coupled to a first compressor section
and a second compressor section of the gas turbine engine, and the heat exchanger is
configured to cool a compressed gas between the first and second compressor
sections.
18. A method, comprising:
flowing a working fluid through a heat exchanger;
exchanging heat between the working fluid and an engine fluid from at least one of a compressor section, a lubricant path, or a coolant path of an engine to generate a heated working fluid and a cooled engine fluid;
exporting the heated working fluid from the heat exchanger to a steam system; and
producing, via the steam system, a steam supply utilizing at least a portion of the heated working fluid.

19. The method of claim 18, comprising:
flowing the heated working fluid from the heat exchanger to a deaerator of the steam system;
removing one or more corrosive components and/or dissolved gases of the heated working fluid to produce a deaerated heated working fluid; and
routing the deaerated heated working fluid to a boiler configured to produce steam at least in part based on the deaerated heated working fluid.
20. The method of claim 18, comprising regulating, via a controller, a flow rate of the heated working fluid exported from the heat exchanger to the steam system based on sensor feedback from one or more sensors coupled to the engine, the heat exchanger, or the steam system.
21. The method of claim 18, comprising adjusting, via a controller, a flow rate of the heated working fluid exported from the heat exchanger to the steam system with one or more flow control devices coupled to the engine, the heat exchanger, or the steam system.
