 Not to mention that operating the dryer in that manner quite likely compromises your home insurance coverage, and is putting your family at risk for toxic mold growth. 

One way to make it work would be to pipe the exhaust through a dessicant filter, provided you don't mind changing the dessicant beads every 15 minutes.  I am offering such a filter, in kit form, for US$1000.00 plus $149.00 shipping and handling. The kit includes the dessicant fliter only, you will need to supply piping and foil tape yourself. Includes detailed instructions and complete disclaimer sheet.  

Abbreviated disclamer:

"Not intended for use with electric or gas fired cloths dryers.  Does not comply with most local building codes.  Dessicant beads may discharge gasses toxic to humans if they come into contact with DHMO (dryer exhaust gases have a very high concentration of DHMO).  Flow blockage from dessicant filter could create a fire hazard when connected the the outlet vent of cloths dryer.  Sinificant risk of loss of life.  Do not eat the dessicant beads.  Do not eat the cloths dryer.  Not for use with cloths dryers.  Typical results only, your mileage may vary."

Any takers?

Seriously though, here is an excellent article or two on the subject of making your laundry room safe.  Here is one on making the perfect laundry room
