Are there any regulations stating that acid and alkali storage tanks must be equipped with dikes? Is it necessary to separate the acid and alkali storage tanks with a dike?

A cofferdam needs to be set up to create a separation.

Of course, cofferdams are installed to prevent accidents caused by the leakage of liquid materials; Separating them is, of course, to prevent leaks and subsequent acid-base neutralization from causing bigger accidents

Which specification specifies such a mandatory requirement? The key is to find the relevant legal provision. .

I think your description is messy; what you’re talking about isn’t a dike at all. A dike corresponds to a fire dike and serves as a division within the fire dike. You can check 50160 for this. As for the cofferdam, if you prefer to have a separation, then you can have one. But the divided part cannot be called a dike.
