Abstract

Provided is a substrate liquid processing apparatus that processes a substrate with a processing liquid. The substrate liquid processing apparatus includes: a processing liquid storage unit configured to store the processing liquid therein; a processing liquid heating unit configured to heat the processing liquid, a controller configured to control the processing liquid heating unit; a temperature sensor; and a concentration sensor connected to the controller. The controller is configured to: measure a concentration of the processing liquid with the concentration sensor, measure a temperature of the processing liquid with the temperature sensor, calculate a boiling point corresponding to the measured concentration of the processing liquid, and control the output of the processing liquid heating unit, based on the boiling point and the measured temperature of the processing liquid.
