how many fire extinguishers do i need to install near a diesel storage tank of 120000 cubic meter
10 feet
Many. Axes, fire extinguishers of all types, torches, I could go on forever.
Many people use portable fire extinguishers as "door stops" on fire doors.This practice is unwise, unsafe and almost certainly a code violation.For example, NFPA 1 requires all usable fire extinguishers to be mounted with the bottom no less than 4 inches from the floor, if it is not on wheels.

Many different types of fire extinguishers exist and many different gases are used. A water extinguisher may contain pressurized air. Other types use carbon dioxide or compressed nitrogen. There are also halogenated extinguishers containing proprietary mixtures of fire-suppression gases.
Many pressurized water fire extinguishers are charged with air at 100 psi.
