Simple solutions:

1/ Hang your wet clothes on a rack, and use a dehumidifier to dry them. Not only does it work well, but the small compressor has a COP of ~ 1.6, so it heats your home while taking the water out of the air and making it more comfortable in the 40% RH level.

2/ Buy a Bosch dryer that uses a compressor in the above maner, as an appliance solution. They save a lot, but are more expensive.

3/ Use a stainless steel 4" pipe inside a 6" pipe as an exchanger. Allow slope for condensation and a drip outlet for water.
