Provided is a substrate processing apparatus including a liquid processing unit that performs a liquid processing on a substrate; a drying processing unit that performs a drying processing on the substrate in a wet state; a first conveyance unit that conveys the substrate to the liquid processing unit; a second conveyance unit that conveys the substrate in the wet state from the liquid processing unit to the drying processing unit; and a third conveyance unit that conveys the substrate before the liquid processing in the liquid processing unit and to convey the substrate after the drying processing from the drying processing unit. The first and second conveyance units and the drying processing unit are disposed on a side that faces the third conveyance unit, and the liquid processing unit is disposed on a side that faces the first and second conveyance units and is opposite to the third conveyance unit.

Substrate processing apparatus

A liquid processing apparatus includes a plurality of liquid processing units, a plurality of individual exhaust paths, a common exhaust path, a first outside air intake section, a first regulation valve, a second outside air intake section, and a second regulation valve. The liquid processing units perform a liquid processing on a processing target object. An exhaust gas from an inside of the liquid processing unit flows in the individual exhaust paths. The exhaust gas from the individual exhaust paths flows in the common exhaust path. The first outside air intake section is formed at the most upstream side to introduce outside air. The first regulation valve is provided in the first outside air intake section. The second outside air intake section is formed at a downstream side of the common exhaust path from the connection. The second regulation valve is provided in the second outside air intake section.
