Abstract: A configuration of two cyclones for separation of solids from a solids-gas mixture wherein the gas outlet of a first cyclone is fluidly connected to an outlet conduit provided with a gas outlet opening and the gas inlet of the second cyclone is connected to an inlet conduit provided with a gas inlet opening, wherein the outlet conduit and inlet conduit are arranged co-axial such that gas leaving the outlet opening of the outlet conduit enters the inlet opening of the inlet conduit and gas from the exterior of the cyclone configuration can enter the gas inlet opening of the inlet conduit wherein the gas outlet opening and the gas inlet opening are axially spaced away from each other and wherein the interior of the gas outlet tube is provided with means to decrease the swirling motion of the gas passing said outlet conduit.
