Your idea of putting screen mesh on the blower is quite crazy- it will also make another lint trap for the lint that doesn't get stuck on the first one, so that should be avoided. Lower heat will not produce less lint- no matter what temperature it is set on it will still produce about the same amount of lint.
A 110 volt dryer won't produce as much heat as a 230 volt one due to less electrical friction in the element.
Less heat might make the dry time longer, but it will cause the clothes to last longer, due to the more gentle heat, so I HIGHLY advise against restricting the airflow to produce more heat.
Your dryer should be fine the way it is and again, I HIGHLY disapprove restricting the airflow. If the airflow is restricted, you'll also cause the high limit thermostat to constantly to kick out and it will break, and it will make another lint trap for lint to get caught in. On those dryers, the fan is directly connected to the motor and the drum belt is also connected, too. I f you use a rheostat to control the speed, the drum will tumble very slowly, and the motor will be very weak. If the speed is slow enough, the motor will stay in the start winding and it will overheat and blow up. The heater is connected to the centifugal switch on the motor and the drum will not heat, so you shouldn't use a rheostat to control its speed.
I hope this helps.
