Several methods for preparing samples of dispersed single aerosol particles used in scanning proton microprobe (SPM) analysis were tested. Many elements such as Al, Si, S, Cl, Ca, Ti, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu and Zn in the groups of different single aerosol particles from the Capital Steel Plant area were analyzed by SPM. The distributions of elemental contents in the group of single particles were mapped with three dimensional contour and the isometric. A new approach to study the group of different single aerosol particles for air pollution is developed in the present work. The results are significant to assessing the environmental impact of the dispersed single aerosol particles.
