This seems to run nmap over series of consecutive IP addresses.  nmap
can do that all by itself.  From its man page::

       Nmap also has a more powerful notation which lets  you  specify  an  IP
       address  using  lists/ranges  for  each element.  Thus you can scan the
       whole class 'B' network  128.210.*.*  by  specifying  '128.210.*.*'  or
       '128.210.0-255.0-255' or even '128.210.1-50,51-255.1,2,3,4,5-255'.  And
       of course you can use the mask notation: '128.210.0.0/16'.   These  are
       all  equivalent.  If you use astericts ('*'), remember that most shells
       require you to escape them with  back  slashes  or  protect  them  with
       quotes.

This setting might be useful too::

       --max_parallelism <number>
              Specifies the maximum number of scans Nmap is allowed to perform
              in parallel.  Setting this to one means Nmap will never  try  to
              scan more than 1 port at a time.  It also effects other parallel
              scans such as ping sweep, RPC scan, etc.

[sorry not Python related but may solve your problem!]
