The pressing pressure used is 0.4882 kg/cm?, 0.9764 kg/cm?, 1.4647 kg/cm?. Particle size passes mesh 10, passes mesh 20, and passes mesh 40. Biopellets are made using a hydraulic shop press and produce biopellets with a length of 2.5 cm and a diameter of 1.2 cm. The quality of the biopellets was assessed by SNI 8021: 2014. The results of the study showed hemicellulose with a value of 25.7\% -34\%, cellulose with a value of 27.1\% -47.6\%, lignin with a value of 7.2\% -10.2\%. Water content with a value of 6.49\%-9.39\%, ash content with a value of 5.00\%-7.32\%, heat with a value of 4380.43 cal/g-4621.86 cal/g. The quality of the biopellets meets the standard requirements of SNI 8021: 2014, except for the ash content. The best results were obtained for particles with a mesh size of 10 with a pressure of 4621.86 cal/g and a positive added value {\ensuremath{>}} 0, namely 38.91\%.
