The wafers W are dipped and rinsed in pure water in the processing bath 60, and then dichloromethane is fed into the processing bath 60, thereby changing the state of the wafer W from being dipped in pure water to being dipped in dichloromethane. Thereafter, the wafers W is raised up to the drying chamber 61, and dichloromethane remained on the surface of each wafer W is evaporated, and the hot N.sub.2 gas is discharged onto the wafers W. Thereby, no water marks are produced, and no resist is dissolved, and the substrate can be dried in safety.
