Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
General	1. General Description of Business SunCoke Energy, Inc. (“SunCoke Energy,” “SunCoke,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us”) is the largest independent producer of high-quality coke in the Americas, as measured by tons of coke produced each year, and has more than 60 years of coke production experience. We have designed, developed, built, own and operate five cokemaking facilities in the United States (“U.S.”), which have collective nameplate capacity to produce approximately 4.2 million tons of blast furnace coke per year. Additionally, we have designed and operate one cokemaking facility in Brazil under licensing and operating agreements on behalf of ArcelorMittal Brasil S.A. (“ArcelorMittal Brazil”), which has approximately 1.7 million tons of annual cokemaking capacity. Our cokemaking ovens utilize efficient, modern heat recovery technology designed to combust the coal’s volatile components liberated during the cokemaking process and use the resulting heat to create steam or electricity for sale. The majority of our coke is used in the blast furnace production of steel and is sold under long-term, take-or-pay agreements with our steelmaking customers. Our coke is also used in the foundry production of casted iron, as well as exported to international customers seeking high-quality products for their blast furnaces. We also own and operate a logistics business that provides handling and/or mixing services to steel, coke (including some of our domestic cokemaking facilities), electric utility, coal producing and other manufacturing based customers. Our logistics business has the collective capacity to mix and/or transload more than 40 million tons of coal and other aggregates annually and has storage capacity of approximately 3 million tons.

Additionally, the Company has certain letters of credit totaling $23.6 million, which do not reduce the Revolving Facility's available balance. Covenants Under the terms of the Revolving Facility, the Company is subject to a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio of 4.50:1.00 and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 2.50:1.00. The Company's debt agreements contain other covenants and events of default that are customary for similar agreements and may limit our ability to take various actions including our ability to pay a dividend or repurchase our stock. If we fail to perform our obligations under these and other covenants, the lenders' credit commitment could be terminated and any outstanding borrowings, together with accrued interest, under the Revolving Facility could be declared immediately due and payable. The Company has a cross default provision that applies to our indebtedness having a principal amount in excess of $35.0 million.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities	7. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities Legal Matters The Company is a party to certain pending and threatened claims, including matters related to commercial disputes, employment claims, personal injury claims, common law tort claims and environmental claims. Although the ultimate outcome of these claims cannot be ascertained at this time, it is reasonably possible that some portion of these claims could be resolved unfavorably to the Company. Management of the Company believes that any liability which may arise from these claims would not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. SunCoke's threshold for disclosing material environmental legal proceedings involving a government authority where potential monetary sanctions are involved is $1.0 million. Black Lung Benefit Liabilities The Company has obligations related to coal workers’ pneumoconiosis, or black lung, benefits to certain of its former coal miners and their dependents. Such benefits are provided for under Title IV of the Federal Coal Mine and Safety Act of 1969 and subsequent amendments, as well as for black lung benefits provided in the states of Virginia, Kentucky and West Virginia pursuant to workers’ compensation legislation. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”), which was implemented in 2010, amended previous legislation related to coal workers’ black lung obligations. PPACA provides for the automatic extension of awarded lifetime benefits to surviving spouses and changes the legal criteria used to assess and award claims. We adjust our liability each year based upon actuarial calculations of our expected future payments for these benefits. Our independent actuarial consultants calculate the present value of the estimated black lung liability annually based on actuarial models utilizing our population of former coal miners, historical payout patterns of both the Company and the industry, actuarial mortality rates, disability incidence, medical costs, death benefits, dependents, discount rates and the current federally mandated payout rates. The estimated liability may be impacted by future changes in the statutory mechanisms, modifications by court decisions and changes in filing patterns driven by perceptions of success by claimants and their advisors, the impact of which cannot be estimated. The estimated liability was $64.1 million and $63.3 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, of which the current portion of $5.4 million was included in accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in both periods.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	8. Share-Based Compensation Equity Classified Awards During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company granted share-based compensation to eligible participants under the SunCoke Energy, Inc. Long-Term Performance Enhancement Plan (“SunCoke LTPEP”). All awards vest immediately upon a qualifying termination of employment, as defined by the SunCoke LTPEP, following a change in control. Restricted Stock Units Settled in Shares The Company issued 309,721 stock-settled restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain employees to be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The weighted average grant date fair value was $7.66 per unit and was based on the closing price of our common stock on the day of the grant. The RSUs vest in three annual installments beginning one year from the date of grant. Performance Share Units Performance share units (“PSUs”) were granted to certain employees to be settled in shares of the Company's common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2022, for which the service period will end on December 31, 2024, and will vest during the first quarter of 2025. The service period for certain retiree eligible participants is accelerated. The Company granted the following PSUs: Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value per Unit PSUs (1)(2) 154,860 $ 8.40 (1) The PSU awards are split 50/50 between the Company's three year cumulative Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in Note 12) performance measure and the Company's three-year average pre-tax return on capital performance measure for its coke and logistics businesses and unallocated corporate expenses. (2) The number of PSUs ultimately awarded will be determined by the above performance measures versus targets and the Company's three-year total shareholder return (“TSR”) as compared to the TSR of the companies making up the Nasdaq Iron & Steel Index (“TSR Modifier”). The TSR Modifier can impact the payout between 80 percent and 120 percent of the Company's final performance measure results. The award may vest between 25 and 200 percent of the original units granted. The fair value of the PSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022 is based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant as well as a Monte Carlo simulation for the valuation of the TSR Modifier. Liability Classified Awards Restricted Stock Units Settled in Cash During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company issued 247,123 restricted stock units to certain employees to be settled in cash (“Cash RSUs”), which vest in three annual installments beginning one year from the grant date and are part of the SunCoke LTPEP. The weighted average grant date fair value of the Cash RSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $7.54 per unit and was based on the closing price of our common stock on the day of grant. The Cash RSU liability is adjusted based on the closing price of our common stock at the end of each quarterly period and was $1.1 million at March 31, 2022 and $1.9 million at December 31, 2021. Cash Incentive Awards The Company also granted long-term compensation to eligible participants under the SunCoke Energy, Inc.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings per Share	9. Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) has been computed by dividing net income attributable to SunCoke Energy, Inc. by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Except where the result would be anti-dilutive, diluted EPS has been computed to give effect to share-based compensation awards using the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the weighted-average number of common shares used to compute basic EPS to those used to compute diluted EPS: Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 2021 (Shares in millions) Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding-basic 83.2 82.8 Add: Effect of dilutive share-based compensation awards 1.0 0.7 Weighted-average number of shares-diluted 84.2 83.5 The following table shows equity awards that are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the shares would have been anti-dilutive: Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 2021 (Shares in millions) Stock options 1.8 2.9 Total 1.8 2.9

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement	3 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurement	10. Fair Value Measurement The Company measures certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value disclosures are reflected in a three-level hierarchy, maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows: • Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market. • Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. • Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability. Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company's cash and cash equivalents were measured at fair value at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. These inputs are classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy. Certain Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s total debt was estimated to be $612.0 million and $625.1 million, respectively, compared to a carrying amount of $ 641.2 million and $627.0 million, respectively.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue from Contracts with Customers	11. Revenue from Contracts with Customers Cokemaking Our blast furnace coke sales are largely made pursuant to long-term, take-or-pay coke sales agreements primarily with Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Holding Corporation and Cleveland-Cliffs Steel LLC, both subsidiaries of Cleveland Cliffs Inc. and collectively referred to as "Cliffs Steel", United States Steel Corporation ("U.S. Steel"), and Algoma Steel Inc. The take-or-pay provisions in our agreements require our customers to purchase coke volumes as specified in the agreements or pay the contract price for any tonnage they do not purchase. The take-or-pay provisions of our agreements also require us to deliver minimum annual tonnage. As of March 31, 2022, our coke sales agreements have approximately 13.9 million tons of unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations, which are expected to be delivered over a weighted average remaining contract term of approximately six years . Foundry coke sales are generally made under annual agreements with our customers for an agreed upon price and do not contain take-or-pay volume commitments. Export coke sales are generally made on a spot basis at the current market price. Revenues on all coke sales are recognized when performance obligations to our customers are satisfied in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for the coke. Logistics In our logistics business, handling and/or mixing services are provided to steel, coke (including some of our domestic cokemaking facilities), electric utility, coal producing and other manufacturing based customers. Materials are transported in numerous ways, including rail, truck, barge or ship. We do not take possession of materials handled, but rather act as intermediaries between our customers and end users, deriving our revenues from services provided on a per ton basis. The handling and mixing services consist primarily of two performance obligations, unloading and loading of materials. Revenues are recognized when the customer receives the benefits of the services provided, in an amount that reflects the consideration that we will receive in exchange for those services. The long-term, take-or-pay agreement between Convent Marine Terminal ("CMT") and Javelin Global Commodities (UK) Ltd. was extended during the first quarter of 2022, which includes 4 million take-or-pay tons in both 2023 and 2024. Estimated take-or-pay revenue of approximately $47.5 million from all of our multi-year logistics contracts is expected to be recognized over t he next 3 years fo r unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations as of March 31, 2022.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Business Segment Information	12. Business Segment Information The Company reports its business through three segments: Domestic Coke, Brazil Coke and Logistics. The Domestic Coke segment includes the Jewell, Indiana Harbor, Haverhill, Granite City and Middletown cokemaking facilities. Each of these facilities produces coke, and all facilities except Jewell recover waste heat, which is converted to steam or electricity. The Brazil Coke segment includes the licensing and operating fees payable to us under long-term contracts with ArcelorMittal Brazil, under which we operate a cokemaking facility located in Vitória, Brazil through at least 2023. Logistics operations are comprised of CMT, Kanawha River Terminal ("KRT"), Lake Terminal, which provides services to our Indiana Harbor cokemaking facility, and Dismal River Terminal ("DRT"), which provides services to our Jewell cokemaking facility. Handling and mixing results are presented in the Logistics segment. Corporate expenses that can be identified with a segment have been included in determining segment results. The remainder is included in Corporate and Other, which also includes activity from our legacy coal mining business. Segment assets are those assets utilized within a specific segment and exclude taxes. The following table includes Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, which is the measure of segment profit or loss reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance: Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 2021 (Dollars in millions) Sales and other operating revenue: Domestic Coke $ 411.6 $ 335.3 Brazil Coke 9.4 8.5 Logistics 18.8 16.1 Logistics intersegment sales 7.5 6.6 Elimination of intersegment sales (7.5) (6.6) Total sales and other operating revenues $ 439.8 $ 359.9 Adjusted EBITDA: Domestic Coke $ 76.0 $ 63.5 Brazil Coke 4.2 4.5 Logistics 12.6 10.9 Corporate and Other, net (9.0) (8.3) Total Adjusted EBITDA $ 83.8 $ 70.6 Depreciation and amortization expense: Domestic Coke $ 31.3 $ 28.7 Brazil Coke — 0.1 Logistics 3.6 3.3 Corporate and Other 0.3 0.3 Total depreciation and amortization expense $ 35.2 $ 32.4 Capital expenditures: Domestic Coke $ 11.1 $ 16.4 Brazil Coke 0.1 0.1 Logistics 1.7 3.6 Total capital expenditures $ 12.9 $ 20.1 The following table sets forth the Company's segment assets: March 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 (Dollars in millions) Segment assets Domestic Coke $ 1,450.5 $ 1,370.6 Brazil Coke 19.4 18.0 Logistics 203.5 202.9 Corporate and Other 32.3 23.9 Total assets $ 1,705.7 $ 1,615.4 The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on segment Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted for any impairments, restructuring costs and gains or losses on extinguishment of debt. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net income or operating income under GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures in other businesses. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure in assessing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because it highlights trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures and because it eliminates items that have less bearing on our operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be considered a substitute for net income or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is its most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP: Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 2021 (Dollars in millions) Net income attributable to SunCoke Energy, Inc. $ 29.5 $ 16.5 Add: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests 1.1 1.7 Net income $ 30.6 $ 18.2 Add: Depreciation and amortization expense 35.2 32.4 Interest expense, net 8.0 12.7 Income tax expense 10.0 7.3 Adjusted EBITDA $ 83.8 $ 70.6 Subtract: Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests (1) 2.1 2.6 Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SunCoke Energy, Inc. $ 81.7 $ 68.0
