Substrate processing apparatus, substrate processing method, and recording medium

The invention provides a substrate processing apparatus which effectively suppresses blocking of a filter of a processing solution. A coating and developing device includes a nozzle for discharging aprocessing solution, a processing solution supply part for supplying the processing solution to the nozzle and a controller. The processing solution supply part includes a tank, a first conduit for guiding the processing solution from the tank to the nozzle, a pump installed in the first conduit, and a filter having first and second spaces, and a filtering member for separating between the first space and the second space. The controller performs a first control process of controlling the processing solution supply part to flow the processing solution from the first space to the second space through the filtering member by the pump, and after the first control process, a second control process of controlling the processing solution supply part to flow the processing solution from the second space to the first spac
