The wafer 10 is processed. The H 2 gas is discharged to the H 2 gas processing section 6 through a valve 19. After the processing of the wafer 10 is completed, N 2 gas is flown into the reaction tube 3 to expel H 2 gas. (There is also a method in which the inside of the reaction tube 3 is evacuated before flowing the N 2 gas to completely evacuate the H 2 gas in the reaction tube 3.) The expelled H 2 gas passes through the evacuating tube 5 and passes through the valve. It flows to the H 2 gas processing unit 6 through 19 and is safely processed so as not to explode. When the inside of the reaction tube 3 is replaced with N 2 gas, the space between the O-rings 11 in each of the two chambers is returned to the atmospheric pressure through a vacuum exhaust pipe. The boat 8 loaded with the wafers 10 by the elevating mechanism 9 is unloaded from the inside of the reaction tube 3.
