You will never be able to insert a null character into a PostgreSQL database.
You can either modify the source data or change the data in transit.
 
This is not 100% true, but is true for text-fields. You can insert \0 into BYTEA columns.
 
 
Usually the \0 isn't important so you can do this in JAVA before inserting into PG:
 
someString.replace('\0', ' ') or someString.replaceAll("\0", "")
