replacing spaces with null or 0 in the input file

hi
i have records in my input file like this

aaa|1234||2bc||rahul|tamilnadu
bba|2234||b4c||bajaj|tamilnadu


what i am expecting is in between two pipes if there is no character it should be replaced with null or 0

so my file will look like this

aaa|1234|null|2bc|0|rahul|tamilnadu
bba|2234|null|b4c|0|bajaj|tamilnadu


how to do it

can anyone explain

thanks in advance
