Background air conditioning noise

I have recorded a conference where I could not switch of the air conditioning, and so there is a background hum in all my recordings, which are here:

I am a mac user, and I would be grateful for any suggestions of how I can reduce this.

If you have to do more of these sessions maybe closer mic placement and some trick eq would mask it down a touch?

A pair of stereo laveliers from Giant Squid:

I am a beginner, but these are really amazingly sensitive. Perhaps too sensitive here. They were taped to the lectern. I had the option of using the feed from the main microphone, but it was mono output, so I used my own.
