Flame-made Ga/TiO2 with different Ga-loading was prepared and tested for ODHE using CO2 as oxidant. The Ga-content strongly affected the catalyst performance. 10%Ga was optimal affording 22% yield and 38% selectivity. All catalysts showed coking, but could be regenerated by exposure to air for 10 min at the reaction temperature.
