Abstract

A heating processing performed on an outer peripheral portion of a substrate can be optimized. A substrate processing apparatus includes a holding unit configured to hold a substrate; a rotation unit configured to rotate the holding unit; a processing liquid supply unit configured to supply a processing liquid onto the substrate held in the holding unit; and a heating device configured to heat an outer peripheral portion of the substrate held in the holding unit. Further, the heating device includes a discharge flow path through which a gas is discharged toward the outer peripheral portion of the substrate held in the holding unit; a branch flow path through which a gas is discharged toward a region other than the substrate held in the holding unit; and a heating unit configured to heat the discharge flow path and the branch flow path.
