Abstract
Oscillatory transport processes which occur in the far from equilibrium region have assumed great significance from the viewpoint of science of complexity. Oscillatory phenomena in the chemical reaction systems have been subjected to intense investigations both from theoretical and experimental angles. In the present review an effort has been made to bring transport processes other than conventional chemical reactions into focus: transport processes mediated by solid-liquid and liquid-liquid interfaces have been discussed. Transport through membranes including liquid membranes, liquid-liquid interfaces and the recently reported hydrodynamic oscillator have been covered. Applications of these systems in areas such as fabrication of sensors, phase transfer catalysis and, of course, the obvious biological action, e.g. excitation of biomembranes and tissues, have been reviewed. Theoretical frameworks proposed to rationalize the phenomena have also been critically reviewed.
