Regenerator for catalytic cracking unit comprising a first part occupied by a dense fluidized bed of catalyst and a second part positioned above the first part and occupied by a fluidized bed of low solid particles density, the said second part comprising one internal device covering, by projection onto the plane of the cross section of the said vessel of the regenerator, at least 80% of the said cross section, the said regenerator being equipped with at least one cyclone for separating gases/solids in the mixture derived from the low-density bed, the said cyclone being placed outside the vessel of the regenerator.

Process for separating gases from a fluidized gas/solid mixture, comprising at least one injection of gas and optionally at least one injection of solids into and at least one discharge of solids from said fluidized bed, a discharge for gas from the mixture characterized in that it comprises a step of separating the solids entrained by the gas by means of an internal placed in that portion of the fluidized mixture where the voidage is greater than 0.7, occupying less than 10% of the free cross section of the bed.
