The invention discloses a sieve-plate tower used for sintering machine flue gas desulfurization and a desulfurization process thereof, and belongs to the field of resource and environment protection. The device comprises an absorption tower, wherein the absorption tower is provided with a flue gas inlet, a flue gas outlet and a desulfurizer inlet, a demisting layer, a spraying layer, a sieve plate and a pulp chest are sequentially arranged in the absorption tower from top to bottom, the desulfurizer inlet is positioned above the flue gas inlet, the sieve plate is positioned between the desulfurizer inlet and the flue gas inlet, an overflow weir is arranged above the sieve plate, the sieve plate is divided into an overflow area and a gas liquid contact area by the overflow weir, sieve pores of the sieve plate are arranged in the gas liquid contact area, the gas liquid contact area is positioned at one side of the sieve plate close to the desulfurizer inlet, and an overflow pipe is arranged under the overflow area. The desulfurization process comprises the following steps that: sintering machine flue gas enters the absorption tower to be reacted with the desulfurizer at the gas liquid contact area and then is discharged after sulfur dioxide is removed, and desulfurized pulp generated by the reaction of the flue gas and the desulfurizer overflows into the pulp chest of the absorption tower. The invention is used for removing the sulfur dioxide in the sintering machine flue gas, the flue gas desulfurization efficiency is improved, and the desulphurization energy consumption is reduced.
