A catalytic hydrocracking reactor vessel includes enhanced components for the conversion of a hydrogen gas and fossil fuel feedstream to light liquid hydrocarbons. The reactor vessel comprises one or more of a reactor cup riser with a helical cyclonic separator conduit for separating a liquid and vapor product stream to provide an essentially vapor-free liquid recycle stream; a grid plate bubble cap with wall housing having serrated edges for producing small hydrogen bubbles of increased total surface area of bubbles at lower pressure drop; a feedstream inlet pipe sparger containing rows of downward directed slots for even distribution of the feedstream across the cross-sectional area of the reactor and providing free drain of solid particles from the sparger; and optionally a liquid recycle inlet distributor containing vertically curved plates for creating a whirling motion in the liquid recycle stream for better mixing with the feedstream with minimal solids settling.

What is claimed is: 1. A grid plate bubble cap assembly for use in a reactor vessel and adapted for producing small gaseous bubbles above a grid plate in a reactor vessel, comprising: a grid plate; a bubble cap housing having a closed top, an open bottom, and an interior space defined by an inner wall of said bubble cap housing for dispersing vapor and liquid above said grid plate in a reactor vessel; and a shell-in-shell conduit assembly, extending at least partially through said interior space, for receiving vapor and liquid from below said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel and feeding it to said interior space of said bubble cap housing, said shell-in-shell conduit assembly comprising: an inner pipe having an upper portion extending at least partially through said interior space and a bottom portion extending below said bubble cap housing and below said grid plate through which liquid and/or vapor saturated liquid can be fed from below said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel to said interior space of said bubble cap housing; and an outer pipe disposed around a portion of said inner pipe and having an upper portion extending partially through said interior space, a lower portion extending below said bubble cap housing and through said grid plate, and a bottom end that terminates above a bottom end of said inner pipe so as to form a shell-in-shell space through said grid plate through which vapor can be directly fed from below said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel to said interior space of said bubble cap housing. 2. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 1, said inner pipe having a closed top and a plurality of passages through a side of said upper portion of said inner pipe through which liquid or vapor saturated liquid can be passed into said interior space of said bubble cap housing. 3. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 2, said inner pipe further having a length so that a bottom end thereof can be submerged in liquid and/or terminate at an interface between liquid and vapor below said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel. 4. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 1, said upper portion of said outer pipe terminating below said upper portion of said inner pipe and having a closed top and a plurality of passages through a side of said upper portion of said outer pipe through which vapor can be passed from said shell-in-shell space into said interior space of said bubble cap housing. 5. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 4, said outer pipe further having a length so that said bottom end thereof terminates within a vapor space below said grid plate in the reactor vessel. 6. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 5, said bottom end of said outer pipe having a serrated edge. 7. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 6, said serrated edge of said bottom end of said outer pipe comprising saw tooth triangles. 8. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 1, said bubble cap housing having a bottom end having a serrated edge. 9. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 8, said serrated edge of said bubble cap housing comprising saw tooth triangles for producing an increased amount of small gaseous bubbles. 10. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 1, said bubble cap housing being generally round and tapered. 11. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 10, said bubble cap housing being generally bell-shaped. 12. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 10, said bubble cap housing being substantially cylindrical. 13. A grid plate bubble cap assembly for use in a reactor vessel and adapted for producing small gaseous bubbles above a grid plate in a reactor vessel, comprising: a grid plate; a bubble cap housing having a closed top, an open bottom terminating with a serrated edge positioned above said grid plate and comprising saw tooth triangles, a solid continuous wall between said closed top and said serrated edge of said bubble cap, and an interior space defined by an inner side of said solid continuous wall of said bubble cap housing for dispersing vapor and liquid below said bottom of said bubble cap housing and above said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel; and a conduit having an upper portion that extends at least partially through said interior space of said bubble cap housing and a lower portion that extends through and below said grid plate for receiving vapor and liquid from below said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel and feeding it through said upper portion to said interior space. 14. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 13, said conduit further comprising a shell-in-shell conduit assembly that includes: an inner pipe having an upper portion extending at least partially through said interior space and a bottom portion extending below said bubble cap housing and below said grid plate through which liquid and/or vapor saturated liquid can be fed from below said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel to said interior space of said bubble cap housing; and an outer pipe disposed around a portion of said inner pipe and having an upper portion extending partially through said interior space, a lower portion extending below said bubble cap housing and through said grid plate, and a bottom end that terminates above a bottom end of said inner pipe so as to form a shell-in-shell space through said grid plate through which vapor can be directly fed from below said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel to said interior space of said bubble cap housing. 15. A grid plate bubble cap assembly as defined in claim 14, said inner pipe having a closed top and a plurality of passages through a side of said upper portion of said inner pipe through which liquid or vapor saturated liquid can be passed into said interior space of said bubble cap housing, said inner pipe having a length so that a bottom end thereof can be submerged in liquid and/or terminate at an interface between liquid and vapor below said grid plate when in use in a reactor vessel. 16.
