The standard Practice of fighting a fire is to remove any one of the elements in the fire triangle. These 3 elements are Fuel, Oxidant and Energy. In reality the fire triangle is slightly more complicated. It is actually 6 elements. These are Fuel, Oxidant, Energy, Heat Transfer, Mass transfer and Chemical reaction. Once again if you remove any one of these the fire will stop. Many fire extinguishers work on several of these factors.
