Petroleum is the energy source with the largest consumption today when compared to other energy sources. In fact, our petroleum reserves are running low and will only last until 2025 (ESDM, 2006). This condition provides an impetus to find other alternative energy sources, and can be renewed compared to petroleum, natural gas or coal. One interesting option is biomass. Where biomass itself is very suitable to be developed in Indonesia, especially in areas that produce rice. Where after the milling process, the outer rice will produce rice husks which have so far been thrown away as rice husk waste. This rice husk waste is one of the biomass sources that is quite interesting to use as fuel. Drying of paddy (rice) can use biomass energy, a combination of solar and biomass energy and can use a drying tool. This research is a continuation of previous research, namely a 1000 kg/hour Rice Dryer has been created using Rice Husk heaters, so that it is possible to continue the research. The purpose of this study is to analyze the performance of a rice dryer using rice husk waste as fuel. The method used in this study is an experimental and descriptive method. And the targeted output is a reputable international journal. In addition, the Technology Readiness Level (TKT) level 3 with achievement indicators can increase the production of farmers' rice harvests.
