A process for making 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf) includes providing a composition including 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane (HCFC-244bb) to a reactor including a heater surface at a surface temperature greater than about 850° F. (454° C.), and then bringing the composition into contact with the heater surface for a contact time of less than 10 seconds to dehydrochlorinate a portion of the HCFC-244bb to make HFO-1234yf.
