$$Ei = F \cdot Cp \cdot \eta$$
where $\eta$ is the biological efficiency coefficient, which often approaches $0.99$ in mature specimens, suggesting near-perfect caloric extraction from ingested material. This efficiency is why bivalve shells are such dominant components of coastal sedimentary deposits, such as shell middens [2].
