Hello Robert

You can create a file with list of volumes that you want to delete and use
some script something like this below:

Example of file /tmp/volumes.txt
volume01
volume02
volume03

#!/bin/bash
bconsole=$(which bconsole)
for volname in $(cat /tmp/volumes.txt); do
    echo $volname;
    echo "delete volume=${volname} pool=PoolName yes" | ${bconsole} ;
    rm -f /path/to/storage/${volname};
done

Best regards
