1. A system, comprising: a combustor; anda catalytic reactor comprising a catalyst underlying a protective coating disposed over the catalyst to inhibit fouling of the catalyst during combustion, wherein the protective coating is removable while the catalytic reactor is disposed in the combustor by a chemical removal, a mechanical removal, or both, wherein the protective coating is removable without damaging the catalyst disposed in the catalytic reactor, and wherein the protective coating comprises a magnesium hydroxide suspension, bismuth subsalicylate, magnesium sulfonate, or magnesium sulfate. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the protective coating comprises a water soluble coating removable during a compressor wash. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the protective coating is catalytically active. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the catalyst is disposed on a catalyst bed of at least one of honeycombed cells or tubular structures within the catalytic reactor, and wherein the protective coating is disposed as a layer over the catalyst. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the catalyst is configured to reduce NOx emissions during combustion. 6. The system of claim 1, comprising a turbine, a compressor, a turbine engine, or combinations thereof. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the catalytic reactor is disposed within a preburner of the combustor, disposed within a pilot burner of the combustor, disposed within a premixer of the combustor, or disposed within a main combustion chamber of the combustor. 8. A method, comprising: operating a combustor;removing a protective coating to reveal a catalyst within a catalytic reactor of the combustor while the catalytic reactor is disposed within the combustor, wherein the protective coating is removed from the catalytic reactor without damaging the catalyst disposed in the catalytic reactor, and wherein the protective coating comprises a magnesium hydroxide suspension, bismuth subsalicylate, magnesium sulfonate, or magnesium sulfate. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein operating the combustor comprises combusting a non-hydrocarbon based fuel within a gas turbine engine. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein operating the combustor comprises commissioning a gas turbine engine after an engine overhaul, fuel system overhaul, or an initial installation. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein removing the protective coating comprises directing a solvent through the catalytic reactor to dissolve the protective coating. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein removing the protective coating comprises applying at least one of ultrasonic vibrations or a gaseous pressure wave to the catalytic reactor. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein operating the combustor comprises operating a gas turbine engine during an initial startup period ranging from approximately 10 hours to 250 hours prior to removing the protective coating. 14. The method of claim 8, wherein the protective coating comprises bismuth subsalicylate doped with a platinum group metal. 15. A method, comprising: applying a protective coating over a catalyst coating within a catalytic reactor, wherein the protective coating is configured to be removed while the catalytic reactor is disposed within a combustor, wherein the protective coating is configured to be removed without damaging the catalyst coating disposed in the catalytic reactor, and wherein the protective coating comprises a magnesium hydroxide suspension, bismuth subsalicylate, magnesium sultanate, or magnesium sulfate, 16. The method of claim 15, comprising removing the protective coating to reveal the catalyst coating. 17. The method of claim 15, wherein applying the protective coating comprises spraying a metal oxide coating over the catalyst coating. 18. The method of claim 15, wherein applying the protective coating comprises adding the protective coating to the catalytic reactor through a fuel system of the combustor or through a compressor wash upstream of the combustor, 19. The method of claim 15, wherein applying the protective coating comprises coating a liner of the combustor, 20. The system of claim 1, wherein the catalyst comprises a catalyst coating, and wherein the protective coating is removable without damaging the catalyst coating. 21. The system of claim 1, wherein the protective coating is removable without damaging the catalytic reactor.
