There is provided a heating device that is capable of increasing heating efficiency of a heating target by microwave irradiation. The heating device includes a microwave irradiator configured to irradiate a heating target with microwaves, and a collector configured to collect fluid generated from the heating target that is irradiated with the microwaves. The microwaves are electromagnetic waves with a frequency of 300 MHz to 30 GHz, for example. The heating target includes metal, for example. Furthermore, the heating target includes non-metal such as oil, organic compound, and water, for example. When the heating target is irradiated with the microwaves, the heating target is heated, and non-metal with lower melting point and boiling point than metal becomes fluid and is separated from the heating target.
