    摘要: A recover piping cleaning method is a method of cleaning a recovery piping into which a chemical liquid used for processing of a substrate is led via a processing cup, the recovery piping being arranged to lead the led chemical liquid into a predetermined chemical liquid recovery piping, the method including a piping cleaning step of cleaning the interior of the recovery piping by using a cleaning liquid by, while supplying the cleaning liquid to the recovery piping, leading the liquid led into the recovery piping into a drain piping which is different from the chemical liquid recovery piping, and a cleaning chemical liquid supplying step of, supplying the cleaning chemical liquid from a cleaning chemical liquid supply piping connected to the recovery piping to the recovery piping while leading the liquid led into the recovery piping into the drain piping.

    摘要: A substrate processing method includes a substrate holding step of holding a substrate horizontally, a processing liquid supply step of supplying a water-containing processing liquid to an upper surface of the substrate, a liquid film forming step of forming a liquid film of a low surface tension liquid, having a lower surface tension than water, that covers the upper surface by supplying the low surface tension liquid to the upper surface of the substrate to replace the processing liquid on the substrate with the low surface tension liquid, an opening forming step of supplying a gas to a center region of the liquid film to form an opening in the center region of the liquid film, an opening widening step of widening the opening in order to remove the liquid film, a substrate rotating step of rotating, in the opening widening step, the substrate around a predetermined rotational axis along a vertical direction, a gas supply position moving step of blowing, in the opening widening step, the gas toward a gas supply position that is set further inward than a peripheral edge of the opening on the upper surface of the substrate, and moving the gas supply position toward the peripheral edge of the upper surface of the substrate, and a liquid landing position moving step of supplying, in the opening widening step, the low surface tension liquid toward a liquid landing position that is set further outward than the peripheral edge of the opening on the upper surface of the substrate, and moving the liquid landing position toward the peripheral edge of the upper surface of the substrate.

    摘要: A substrate processing method includes a chemical liquid supplying step of supplying a chemical liquid to a substrate, an elapsed period measuring step of measuring an after-the-end elapsed period, a recovery step of controlling the switching unit to be in a recovery guiding state, when, at a start of the chemical liquid supplying step, the after-the-end elapsed period is less than a predetermined first period, and a draining step of controlling the switching unit to be in a drain guiding state, in which the liquid led to the recovery space is led to the drain line, when, at the start of the chemical liquid supplying step, the after-the-end elapsed period is not less than the predetermined first period and then switching to the recovery guiding state based on establishment of a predetermined draining ending condition.

    摘要: A substrate processing method includes a substrate holding step of holding a substrate horizontally, a liquid droplet discharging step wherein liquid droplets of an organic solvent, formed by mixing the organic solvent and a gas, are discharged from a double-fluid nozzle toward a predetermined discharge region within an upper surface of the substrate, and a liquid film forming step, executed before the liquid droplet discharging step, of supplying the organic solvent to the double fluid nozzle without supplying the gas, so as to discharge the organic solvent in a continuous stream mode from the double-fluid nozzle to form a liquid film of the organic solvent covering the discharge region on the upper surface of the substrate.
