Slowing down a clothes dryer

$

Hi folks,

I need to slow down a conventional 220V clothes dryer to 1 rev/sec or a bit less. Is it possible to do that to these types of motors?

My first thought was PWM, but this is most likely a 1/2HP AC motor (total guess).

Only says Frigidaire on the front, nothing on the sides or rear except generic DON'T PEE ON 220V wanring label.
