I knew that the alert log file is a special trace file and which will have all the startup/shutdown,database structure change information and all.....Also,if you delete alter log file and will created automatically with out any effect to the instance.Which process is responsible for this action and what are all the background or some other process which will write information to alter log file?

There is no special process for it. All background processes can write to the alert.log. In fact, nothing prevents you from writing stuff to it as well:
exec dbms_system.ksdwrt(2, 'Look Ma, I can write to the ALERT.LOG...'); |
