You can use Remove-ArchiveItem command.

Eg to remove item with ID "{1BB32980-66B4-4ADA-9170-10A9D3336613}" from Recycle Bin, use:

$database = Get-Database -Name "master"
$archiveName = "recyclebin"
$archive = Get-Archive -Database $database -Name $archiveName
Remove-ArchiveItem -Archive $archive -ItemId "{1BB32980-66B4-4ADA-9170-10A9D3336613}"

To remove all the items from Recycle Bin, use:

$database = Get-Database -Name "master"
$archiveName = "recyclebin"
$archive = Get-Archive -Database $database -Name $archiveName
Get-ArchiveItem -Archive $archive | Remove-ArchiveItem
