Abstract
In a substrate processing apparatus, a phosphoric acid aqueous solution is supplied to a processor, and a liquid collection from the processor is concurrently performed. Further, a silicon concentration is adjusted, to supply an adjusted processing liquid to the processor. Thus, a phosphoric acid aqueous solution film is formed on the substrate. The liquid film is heated by a heating device. The heating device has lamp heaters in a casing made of a silica glass. The phosphoric acid aqueous solution on the substrate is irradiated with infrared rays. A nitrogen gas flowing in a gas passage formed in the casing is discharged towards a position outside an outer periphery of the substrate.
