The increasing of energy source demand in daily life is very high, especially for fossil fuels or non-renewable energy such as oil, gas, and coal. This increase is not also accompanied by the production of fossil fuels. The way that can we can do to overcome this problem is utilize renewable energy such as Biopellets of sawdust that is supported by drying technology in the treatment process. The drying process is a very important step to produce biomass fuel with good quality, drying is intended to reduce the water content containing in the biomass feedstock and to improve the calorific value. The purpose of this study is to make a prototype of unit biomass dryer with rotary system and produce a dry product for biopellets. This research was conducted by designing the structure of the tools that will be created and analyzed the thermal system with the variation of drying time (30 minutes, 45 minutes, and 60 minutes) at a constant temperature of 60 0C. The results showed that drying with the longest time, the decrease of the moisture content in the wood dust will be even greater. However, the thermal efficiency of the drying process show is still quite low because there is a large of heat loss. Keywords: Biomass, Biopellets, Drying, rotary, Heat loss
