Abstract:
A discharge port  31  is arranged inside a chamber  9.  A circulation flow passage  50  circulates a processing liquid, while maintaining the processing liquid at a predetermined temperature. A discharge flow passage  32  is branched from a circulation flow passage  50  to guide the processing liquid to the discharge port  31.  A return flow passage  33  is connected to the discharge flow passage  32  inside the chamber  9  and allows the processing liquid running through the discharge flowpassage  32  to flow back to the circulation flow passage  50.

Claim (Index 9):
The substrate processing apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein the processing liquid supplying system further includes a switching unit, and\n the switching unit switches to a suctioning and removing state in which, in a state that the short-circuit flow passage is opened by the opening/closing unit to short-circuit and connect the discharge flow passage to the return flow passage through the short-circuit flow passage, a suction force is transmitted to a downstream region of the discharge flow passage from a connecting position of the discharge flow passage and the return flow passage, through the suction flow passage and the return flow passage, and the processing liquid inside the region is sucked and removed into the suction flow passage.
