A regeneration method for catalytic cracking reaction, the method is applied in a catalytic reaction process of petroleum hydrocarbon materials, and the method comprises: feeding the regenerated and semi-regenerated catalyst from a regenerator separately into different positions of a reactor for reaction. A part of the semi-regenerated catalyst is firstly processed in a purification cooler for removing carried nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and impurity gases before being fed into the reactor. Spent catalyst or the purified and cooled semi-regenerated catalyst is fed into a catalyst mixing section of the reactor for controlling the temperature of the catalyst being contact with the oil material to be gasified, thereby achieving a three stage cycle of the catalyst in the reactor and a three stage control for the reaction outlets of the oil material gasification zone and the cracking reaction zone and the catalyst taking part in the reaction.
