I want to terminate all pids that meet this criteria. If I remove LIMIT 1, pg_terminate_backend(pid) will not work as it expects only one pid at a time. So, the question is how to rewrite this psql so it loops through all pids one pid at a time? Thanks in advance for your help.

Did you try?
I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work with just 'limit 1' removed.
