Abstract: As an important part of municipal supporting facilities, the ‘NIMBY effect’ of domestic waste transfer stations has always been the focus of attention. The fully underground domestic waste transfer station has gradually been favored by engineering designers because its production facilities are all arranged below the ground, which can effectively reduce the negative impact of waste compression treatment process. The design points of the underground domestic waste transfer station were analyzed, mainly including fire compartmentalization and functional layout, ramp design and traffic organization, smoke control and deodorization system, odor control and safe production, landscape greening and sponge storage. When dividing fire zones, it should be kept the same dividing range of fire zones and functional zones. In the design of underground ramps, it is necessary to consider the requirements of clear height, turning radius and slope required by sanitation vehicles. In terms of underground production and operation space, there are both fire protection and smoke emission requirements as well as deodorization requirements,both types of air ducts have large sizes, which need to be considered comprehensively during the design process. Safe production has always been the focus of the operation of environmental sanitation facilities, especially in the underground space. In the engineering design, it is necessary to select the appropriate process and configure toxic and harmful gas detectors to improve production safety. One of the outstanding advantages of the fully underground transfer station is that the above-ground space can be turned into an open park through the reasonable layout of landscape greening, changing the inherent impression of traditional transfer stations in people’s minds. This study was expected to provide ideas and references for the design of similar projects in the future.
