<p>The invention relates to a method for regenerating an aromatic-hydrocarbon production catalyst or a reforming catalyst. The method comprises a combustion step in an area A including at least two beds A1 and A2, an oxychlorination step in an area B, and a calcination step in an area C. The effluent gas from the oxychlorination step is partially recycled via at least one scrubbing section D towards the input of the beds A1 and A2. Furthermore, the effluent gas from the area B is partially recycled by flowing through a fan and without flowing through said scrubbing section D towards the combustion bed A2.</p>
